I would like it to be possible to highlight the number of repositories a user has created, not the ones he has forked. Indeed, some users fork hundreds of repositories without making any changes to them, and this distorts a little bit the number of repositories.
Actually, the number is the forks + the created repositories. It would be nice if the number of created repositories were highlighted and the number of forks and if the number of forks was put a little bit in the background.
Example URL:
<!-- Please specify a URL where the feature should appear -->
https://github.com/user
I kinda like this idea, but you can already determine those counts using the Type dropdown:
Oh, you're right. Couldn't we do something more visible? Like, for example, when you hover over the span, it displays something like this? (and when you're now hovering it, it displays the fork + owned repository count)
<img width="404" alt="Capture d’écran 2019-12-25 à 11 14 20" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/42497995/71442846-f3fe3900-2707-11ea-989a-e1b96060e0d0.png">
Since we already show the “Source” repos by default, it would make sense to update that number in the sidebar to only count those.
The global search has a counter widget, we might be able to use that so that this feature can be implemented as easily as
tabNumber.replaceWith(<counter query="...."/>) // I don’t remember the widget name actually
That's a good point! I didn't notice that :)
