Blame (Annotation) Reporting

Hey there.

This is something that used to be possible with a long-dead commercial feature called “Developer Cockpit”. SonarQube no longer tracks individual developer metrics, although issues can be automatically assigned to developers based on blame data.

What we found with the Developer Cockpit, that did not align with our product philosophy, was that some managers would use the data it provided as a stick to beat people up with. This only discouraged developers from wanting to use SonarQube, which we want to be a developer-friendly tool.
