Sample of Developer Contributions by Gender

Two sets of 100k anonymized software developers from World of Code after applying the name-to-gender inference tool Wiki-Gendersort and quantifying each developer's number of contributions by commit, project, files; files are classified into 116 sub-categories according to language or development file type (e.g., programming, scripting, or markdown languages such as C, C++, Python, JavaScript, Assembly, HTML; build files such as Dockerfiles, CMake, etc; configuration files; documentation files such as README and Markdown; and libraries. One sample is stratified (50/50 split between male and female developers), and one sample is representative of the population. Wiki-Gendersort outputs M (male), F (female), UNK (unknown), INI (initialis), or UNI (unisex). The scripts used to generate the data set can be found on GitHub.
