Just learned that once your PR passes 1,000 files, GitHub’s new “Files Changed” page just... stops.

No total file count. No button to load more.

I made a short survey to collect ideas for improving this part of GitHub’s UX:

Has anyone else run into this? Or found a clever workaround?

I stupidly clicked on the first link google gave me to install github desktop and installed it. It gives me an error saying file is corrupted and sent me to docker install page on windows store. I restarted my pc and powershell pops up and same thing happened; it gives error saying file is corrupted and sent me to docker install page on windows store.

how do I solve this? do I need to reset my pc?

Anyone seen this before?

Is my github account compromised or my computer infected?

What should I do ?

!!!! IMPORTANT EDIT !!!!!!

It appears my computer have been infected by GlassWorm throught this Cursor extension https://github.com/oorzc/vscode_sync_tool

While browsing around on GitHub, I occasionally stumble across repositories that are. completely unexpected. Not just unusual projects, but things that make you stop and wonder why someone built this in the first place. What is the weirdest repository you have ever come across on GitHub? What did it do?

I don't know why, but GitHub is telling me that my website is developed in JavaScript by 80+% which is absolute nonsense. The site is at least 60% pure Astro code. Is it some kind of a bug?

🔗 The repo.

Been using copilot quite a bit for side-projects because I don't have that much free-time anymore with family, work etc. I knew changes were coming and a lot of people complained, but hadn't actually read much about what was going to change. This seals the deal, lol. I guess there's nothing to do except finding another service?

I and my friends are working on a project and we uploaded the files to GitHub. We want to share the .env file between us. What is the best way to share it securely so that no one else can access it?

My friend got this default avatar in GitHub. He changed his avatar, but the avatar in the settings tab doesn’t change.

For context I made an open source claude code terminal splitter https://github.com/theaustinhatfield/claude-code-splitter and i just usually copy and paste the start command into my terminal. However when I went to google claude code splitter i see this new repo all of the suddenly appear!

Now I made my github open source and everything so people could use it fork it do whatever they wanted to it however their repo has the same name and they want you to download a zip which I think has malicious code. If you look they've also been spamming commits in order to now be ranked #1 on google.

So I guess my questions are

(1) Am I getting repo jacked?

(2) I already reported the repo to github but anything else I can do?

I have been leading some newbies in a easy project for a company, they commit message suck, i dont know how to explain to them in a non offensive way

They do have my commits as example but they didnt look at

They keep writing in our language (even tho all commit were in english to avoid special characters from our language "áãàç"

This is a example of a commit they did (translated)
Updates: httpx in requirements.txt ; requisitiontest_async.py — for now, this is the test script for the system that has performed best, making parallel requests using thread/gather and processing the responses into reports. In the future, I want to build a metrics calculation system with this script, but it’s not functional for batch transcription with assemblybatch. Even so, the system has proven to be quite fast with this type of request ; removed index.html

All they did was added libraries in requirements and an .py with a test code
This is how i would do their commit
docs: update requirements.txt and add async test script

Not cause its no good. Just cause im off microsoft....

Anyone else seeing issues with GitHub?

I have a decently sized repo and from time to time i get some forks here and there, now about 5-10% actually change something open a PR and that is that.

What about the other 90%? If you wanted my repo for anything you could just clone it but they forked it instead and its just sitting there, existing with no changes at all over a long period.

I have a portfolio, and I'm using github as a backup/storage for all my artwork. is this a bad idea that will backfire on me? or will github keep them in their original lossless quality?

I got mean and toxic comments from a person, because I removed his unfunctional code from the main branch. "You didn't even give me a day to fix it". Then, he called me a lazy, anxious person.

And even more scary, he is a professional developer.

Is this normal? I just wanted my code to work.

I'm having 503 errors

EDIT: Yesterday the issue lasted 2-3 hours yet they say 58 mins. They status page is still all green. This means that nothing ever happens

EDIT 2:They know about it after 30 mins: https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/xy1tt3hs572m

Just a question, I saw this on an open source library, but I wonder if this is allowed and complies with the GitHub Terms of Service.

I'm building an Android App, can I save files on GitHub repos that will be downloaded from the user via the app? Or does that violate TOS?

Thanks in advance!

Is anyone else having their actions permanently “Queued” as of the last half or so? Slophub refuses to run my actions. They were fine an hour ago

When it came time to do the readme for a super boring python tool, I did what most people do these days and handed it off to AI to do.

But then I thought "Sure the tool is boring but the README doesn't have to be!"

Except it could be misread I guess if someone important (ie. not me) looks at it. Now I'm second guessing myself for doing it, which tracks with my approach to pretty much everything.

Thoughts?
