摘要

开源软件(OSS)的存在离不开社区的贡献。特别是,长期贡献者(ltc)(例如,提交者),定义为在OSS项目上花费至少一年的贡献者,在项目成功中起着至关重要的作用,因为他们有权向项目的版本控制系统添加(提交)代码更改,并成为OSS项目初学者的导师。然而,贡献者经常在成为LTC之前离开项目,因为大多数贡献者都是志愿者。如果贡献者在OSS项目中的工作受到激励,他们可能不会离开项目。在这项研究中,我们从继续从事OSS项目的动机方面考察了成为LTC所涉及的现象。特别是,我们的目标动机是了解与其他专家贡献者的长期贡献所涉及的内容。我们研究分类器,以确定一个LTC谁将贡献补丁提交超过一年的合作,基于代码审查过程。详细地说,我们分析了什么评审反馈鼓励贡献者继续OSS项目。使用Qt项目数据集,我们了解影响开发人员贡献周期的评审反馈。

Which review feedback did long-term contributors get on OSS projects?
Open Source Software (OSS) cannot exist without contributions from the community. In particular, long-term contributors (LTCs) (e.g., committer), defined as contributors who spend at least one year on OSS projects, play crucial role in a project success because they would have permission to add (commit) code changes to a project's version control system, and to become a mentor for a beginner in OSS projects. However, contributors often leave a project before becoming a LTC because most contributors are volunteers. If contributors are motivated in their work in OSS projects, they might not leave the projects. In this study, we examine the phenomena involved in becoming a LTC in terms of motivation to continue in OSS projects. In particular, our target motivation is to understand what is involved in long-term contribution with other expert contributors. We study classifier to identify a LTC who will contribute patch submissions for more than one year based on collaboration in terms of the code review process. In detail, we analyze what review feedbacks encourage a contributor to continue with OSS project. Using a Qt project dataset, we understand review feedback which affected contribution period of the developer.
