What is the data source/age of the data? The new BigQuery datasets?

The age is April 2016. The source is github.com/src-d/go-git-ing

That's the tool, not the source.

Both the data source and tool are very important to include in analysis posts.

Data source is GitHub of course - it's in the article title, so I don't quite get you...

We used go-git to fetch every repo out there.
