    Haas: Who contributed to PostgreSQL development in 2025?

    Description:
    PostgreSQL contributor Robert Haas has published a blog post that breaks down code contributions to PostgreSQL in
    2025. I calculate that, in 2025, there were 266 people who were the
    principal author of at least one PostgreSQL commit. 66% of the new
    lines of code where contributed by one of 26 people, and 90% of the
    lines of new code were contributed by one of 67 people. Contributions to the project seem to be on the upswing; in his analysis
    of development in 2024 , there were 229 people who were the primary
    authors of a commit, and 66% of new lines of code were contributed by
    one of 18 people. The raw
    data is also available.
