How Hatica creates users to get started quickly

• Hatica creates users automatically and add them to the "All Engineering" team.

• "All Engineering" team is the default team where even if a member is removed from the team, they will be added back automatically.

• We look up commits from last 3 months and then create users

• Old but still active (in last 3 months) PRs can still exist, which can create some users which no longer work with the company.

• Users are NOT created for any commits associated with personal emails, that is, we ONLY create users for emails with your org domain

• There will some users might have commits in last 3 months but no PRs, so most dashboards might have 0 values for them.

• If users have set Keep my email addresses private option in Github, then emails will be set to something like noreply@github.com. We cannot map the username in those cases.

  • https://docs.github.com/en/account-and-profile/setting-up-and-managing-your-personal-account-on-github/managing-email-preferences/setting-your-commit-email-address (opens in a new tab)

We can configure multiple domains to be recognized to be auto-created
