What it measures

Number of files that changed together with a file in at least 2 commits and in at least 30 % of its changes. Commits with more than 50 files are ignored.

How to read it

Height is the number of coupled files. Tall buildings rarely change alone.

Why it matters

Shows hidden dependencies the code does not reveal. A change there usually needs changes elsewhere.
