At least regarding clone, you now (August, 12th 2014) have a dedicated graph.
(In 2019: Insights / Traffic)
See “Clone Graphs”
Our traffic graphs tab shows you a lot of information about who’s visiting your repository on the web.
We’ve added a new graph to this tab, showing git clone activity.
You can use it to find out:
- how many times your repository’s source code is actually cloned in a given day, as well as
- how many unique GitHub users (or anonymous IP addresses) did the cloning.
For more information on traffic graphs, check out the documentation.
Note you also see the Referring sites and Unique visitors
Update Jan. 2021: Dr. Jan-Philip Gehrcke reports in the comments:
For periodically collecting traffic/access data (such as clones, views), I’ve built a GitHub Action:
jgehrcke/github-repo-stats:
it automatically:
- persists the data snapshots in a git repository,
- aggregates them, and
- generates a report with charts that then can span the entire data collection period!
