Abstract
Techniques for processing change requests for software projects are disclosed. An example method includes generating a contributor score for a contributor of source code to a software project and saving the contributor score to a storage device. The contributor score reflects a degree to which source code submissions by the contributor are trustworthy. The method also includes receiving a change request from the contributor to change a part of the software project. The change request includes new or updated source code for the software project. The method also includes, in response to receiving the change request, retrieving the contributor score from the storage device, comparing, by a processing device, the contributor score to a threshold to identify an action to be performed in relation to the change request, and executing the action.
