GitHub Issues – huggingface/datasets (raw)

Dataset Summary

A corpus of GitHub issues and pull requests from the huggingface/datasets repository. Created as a practice exercise following Chapter 5 of the Hugging Face LLM Course ("Creating your own dataset").

How the data was collected

• Source: GitHub REST API (/repos/huggingface/datasets/issues, state=all)
• Collected on: 2026-10-05
• Pull requests are included; they can be identified by the pull_request field (it is None for regular issues).
• This "raw" version keeps the original API fields with minimal processing and does not include issue comments.

Dataset Structure

Each row is one issue or pull request. Key fields:

• number – issue/PR number
• title – title
• body – description text
• labels – GitHub labels (e.g. bug, enhancement)
• state – open or closed
• created_at, closed_at – timestamps
• pull_request – present only for pull requests

Intended Uses

• Learning to build and share datasets with 🤗 Datasets
• Exploring how long issues take to close
• Multilabel classification of issue labels
• Semantic search over issues

Limitations

• A snapshot in time; newer issues are not included.
• (If you limited num_issues) Only a subset of all issues was collected.
• Text was written by GitHub users and may contain usernames, code, and links.
