Chrome extension that simplifies the GitHub interface and adds useful features
I use GitHub a lot and notice many dumb annoyances I want to fix. So here be dragons.
My hope is that GitHub will notice and implement some of these much needed improvements. So if you like any of these features, please email GitHub support about adding it.
- Linkifies branch references in pull requests
- Adds a 'Releases' tab to repos (g r hotkey)
- Hides 👍 👎 comments and shows their count in the sidebar
- Automagically expands the news feed when you scroll down
- Hides other users starring/forking your repos from the newsfeed
- Removes tooltips
- Removes annoying hover effect in the repo file browser
- Removes the comment box toolbar
- Moves the dashboard organization switcher to the right column
Install it from the Chrome Web Store or manually.
I'm happy to receive suggestions and contributions, but be aware this is a highly opinionated project. I'm not interested in adding options as it's a slippery slope into adding options for everything. Users will always disagree with something. That being said, I'm open to discussing things.
