> The 20 most-changed files in the last year. The file at the top is almost always the one people warn me about. “Oh yeah, that file. Everyone’s afraid to touch it.”

I've got my Emacs set up to display next to every file that is versioned the number of commits that file has been modified in (for the curious: using a modified all-the-icons-ivy-rich + custom elisp code + custom Bash scripts I wrote and it's trickier than it seems to do in a way that doesn't slows everything down). For example in the menu to open a file or open a recently visited file etc.: basically in every file list, in addition to its size, owner, permissions, etc. I also add the number of commits if it's a versioned file.

I like the fix/bug/broken search in TFA to see where the bugs gather.
