GitHub Repo Stats
Simon 这个 GitHub Repo Stats 工具虽小,但直接解决了移动端看不了 commit 数这个真实痛点,做开源评估的开发者可以立刻用起来。
作者开发了一个名为“GitHub Repo Stats”的在线工具,用于解决GitHub移动端网站不显示仓库提交次数的问题。用户只需输入GitHub仓库的URL或“foo/bar”格式的仓库ID,该工具便会通过REST或GraphQL API获取并展示仓库的关键统计数据,其中首要指标就是提交总数。工具已提供实际示例,如查看simonw/datasette和simonw/llm这两个仓库的详细数据。

One of the things I always look for when evaluating a new GitHub repository is the number of commits it has... but that number isn't visible on GitHub's mobile site layout. I built this tool to fix that, using this prompt:
Given a GitHub repo URL or foo/bar repo ID show information about that repo absorbed via wither REST or graphql CORS fetch() including the number of commits in the repo and other useful stats
Example output for simonw/datasette and simonw/llm.
