To avoid any misunderstandings:

This is not in any way meant against you personally.

But saying things like " X% of your commits introduced bugs" is not a
friendly thing, and wrong data could be quite hurting.

Especially in the open source world where much motivation comes from
people being proud of their work.

Even correct data can do harm.

And bad data can have really bad effects.
