# Multi-repo GitHub Issues — example dataset

**Short description**  
This dataset contains GitHub issues collected from multiple large open-source repositories (sampled): `huggingface/datasets, pytorch/pytorch, tensorflow/tensorflow`. Each row is one GitHub Issue (pull requests excluded). The dataset includes derived fields (time_to_close_days, label_count, body lengths) suitable for analytics and demonstration of dataset publishing workflows.

**Files**
- `data/github_issues_datasets-Sulakshana.csv` — CSV table.
- `data/github_issues_datasets-Sulakshana.parquet` — Parquet file.
- `data/github_issues_datasets-Sulakshana.jsonl` — JSON Lines.

**Schema (columns)**: repo, 'issue_id', 'number', 'title', 'body', 'state', 'created_at',
       'updated_at', 'closed_at', 'comments', 'html_url', 'user_login',
       'user_id', 'label_names', 'has_parent_issue_url', 'title_word_count',
       'body_char_count', 'labels_count', 'resolved_at',
       'body_length_category'

**How data was collected**
Data were retrieved via the GitHub REST API v3 (https://api.github.com) by paging the issues endpoints for each repository listed above. Collection date: 2025-11-04. Some fields (e.g., `sample_comments`) may have been omitted to reduce sensitive content.

**License, privacy & attribution**
- This derived dataset is released under **CC-BY-4.0**.
- Source data are public GitHub issues; original issue authors retain their original contributions under GitHub's terms. Each record contains `html_url` linking to the original issue — please attribute as appropriate.
- The dataset includes public usernames. If you will publish models or downstream artifacts, consider pseudonymizing or removing `user_login` and `sample_comments`.
- Do not assume personal data minimization: if your use case requires removal of personal data or compliance with local laws (e.g., GDPR), perform appropriate redaction and document it here.

**Intended uses and limitations**
- For exploratory analysis, project analytics, and demonstration of dataset publishing. Not intended as a comprehensive snapshot of repository history; rate limits and pagination caps may have truncated older issues.

**Contact / removal requests**
If an author requests removal of a specific record, please provide the issue URL and we will remove it from this dataset build. (Provide contact info or link to hub profile.)
