Anthropic's monorepo data shows daily merged code changes grew from roughly 2,500 in May 2026 to over 30,000 by September, peaking at 30,401 on September 9 — a 12x jump in four months. The accompanying chart shows steady growth through the spring, a dip during a quiet week in August, then a steep climb. Commenters link the surge to AI coding tools, noting it helps explain why GitHub keeps breaking under the load.
