Just wondering if there is any Analytics type things available for github. I'd be curious to know who is viewing / using my code, if anyone...
Can the owner of the repo see when someone clones it? No, they cannot.
If your project is hosted on GitHub, you can view how many people land on your project and where they come from. From your project's page, click “Insights”, then “Traffic”. On this page, you can see: Total page views: Tells you how many times your project was viewed.
Cloning is a read-only operation, the original repository isn't modified. There is no way you can pull statistics for data that simply isn't tracked.
On GitHub.com, navigate to the main page of the repository. Under your repository name, click Insights. In the left sidebar, click Traffic.
All analytics for a GitHub repository is available at
https://github.com/<username>/<reponame>/graphs/traffic
