How it works

When you push commits to your connected repository, DataFast automatically displays them on your analytics chart. You'll see:

• Commit messages aligned with traffic and revenue data
• Author information and line changes (+/- stats)
• Branch names and timestamps
• Filters to focus on specific types of commits (e.g., feat:, fix:)

Set up GitHub integration

1. Go to your Website Settings > Integrations
2. Find the GitHub section
3. Click Install GitHub App
4. Select your repository from the dropdown
5. DataFast syncs your commit history automatically

Requirements

• GitHub account (personal or organization)
• Admin access to the repository you want to track
• One repository per website

DataFast requires minimal permissions to track commits. We don't even read the code, just the commit messages and a few metadata (see "What gets tracked" section).

What gets tracked

• Commit messages
  • See what changed
• Author info
  • Who made the commit
• Line changes
  • +/- additions and deletions
• Branch
  • Which branch the commit is on
• Timestamp
  • When it was committed
