You know what I love to know? Which branch is the most uptodate! The network page of github is slow and hard to see what is going on.

Some repos become dead then I look for forks to see if somebody fix it or improve it. Normally, I need to open several forks to select one.

I imagine a interface like a leaderboard where the most uptodate and with more commits lead the pack...



On GitHub there's a "Branches" tab for each repo which lists how many commits ahead or behind master each branch is. Sounds like it's close to what you're looking for.


I think s/he means "Which fork is most up-to-date?"


Hmm, never thought of that, excellent idea mamcx!

I'll start scoping that out and see what a solution would look like, seems like it would helpful for a lot of projects.

Thanks for the idea mamcx!
