Abstract: A method for managing code development comprises: accessing at least one software code project on one or more software development platforms; computing a plurality of signature values, each signature value computed for one of a plurality of operators of the at least one software code project according to a plurality of entries associated with the operator in one of the one or more software development platforms and indicative of a plurality of software development characteristics of the operator; identifying a set of matches in the plurality of operators, each match identified between at least two of the plurality of operators according to the plurality of signature values; and providing the set of matches to at least one management software object for the purpose of performing at least one management task of the at least one code project.
