I think the pre-GitHub stats includes merge commits too:

    https://github.com/python/cpython/commits?after=a801cf164be7c62b6a6dba47ff91d6c3edb67729+34&author=berkerpeksag

(Look at the commits from Feb 7, 2017.)

It's normal to have less commits on master since we are now doing
"merge in master-cherrypick into maintenance branches" instead of
"merge from X.Y to X.Y+1 to master".
