Summary (TL;DR)
The bus factor measures the risk of project disruption when key team members become unavailable. It is the minimum number of people whose sudden absence would stall a project. A low bus factor (often 1 or 2) indicates a single point of failure. Studies of GitHub projects found 65% have a bus factor of 2 or less. Teams can improve their bus factor by reducing complexity, documenting processes, and cross-training.
