octotree

We got a user request to change the URL from https://github.com/ovity/octotree/issues/1040, so I've belatedly done so.

The context is that someone asked for source and the maintainer lied: https://github.com/ovity/octotree/issues/1038#issuecomment-7... 1. That wasn't what was being challenged. The challenge was whether there was, in fact, a "complete rewrite", since the output files matched the AGPL source 1:1. 2. Do you mean me (Christian Bundy)? I asked a question because I was unhappy seeing the maintainer lie to one of my friends about the "complete rewrite". Lies bad, truth good. The licensing is the reason for the lie, not the reason for the investigation.

The maintainer seems reluctant to come to senses, pity. https://github.com/ovity/octotree/issues/1041 Not only my issue got closed as a "spam", my account now has been blocked by "their organization". http://ix.io/2CCK/text I really hope Github's learning and (job) recommendation algorithms do not take this into account.

The author IMHO can relicense their code to whatever their like. Based on package.json only one author mentioned, Buu Nguyen <buunguyen@gmail.com> [1]https://github.com/ovity/octotree/blob/master/package.json

I particularly like commit c8010802f [0]. Here's a small portion of it: - ## Credits - - Octotree uses the following open-source software: - - - [jQuery](https://github.com/jquery/jquery) - - [jQuery UI](https://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui) - - [jstree](https://github.com/vakata/jstree) - - [file-icons-js](https://github.com/websemantics/file-icons-js) - - [keymaster](https://github.com/madrobby/keymaster) - - [jquery-pjax](https://github.com/defunkt/jquery-pjax) - - [github-dark](https://github.com/StylishThemes/GitHub-Dark) -- [0]: https://github.com/ovity/octotree/commit/c8010802f5f04bd3f52... -- EDIT: Fixed URL.

Here's the contributors page[1]. He's clearly the core contributor, but there are a handful of other significant authors and dozens of minor contributions[2]. [1] https://github.com/ovity/octotree/graphs/contributors [2] Not to diminish the effort of submitting even a one-line PR, just in the sense of "de minimis" in terms of copyrightability.

> if he is the sole author of the software Absolutely, but he isn't the sole author: https://github.com/ovity/octotree/graphs/contributors I'd imagine that he knows this, which is why he's pretending that the proprietary Octotree is a "complete rewrite".

We're releasing our extension soon for all browsers. https://forwardemail.net Here's extensions I use and my full setup: https://gist.github.com/niftylettuce/39597a7b3bc0660ffe1e09d... git clone https://github.com/zenorocha/codecopy git clone https://github.com/philc/vimium.git git clone https://github.com/OctoLinker/OctoLinker.git git clone https://github.com/ilGur1132/Smart-HTTPS.git git clone https://github.com/ovity/octotree.git git clone https://github.com/mrcoles/full-page-screen-capture-chrome-extension.git + https://github.com/jswanner/DontFuckWithPaste + https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock

While not exactly the solution you're looking for, I've found that Octotree is a useful tool for navigating GitHub: https://github.com/ovity/octotree

Great Chromium extensions you can get from GitHub: mkdir ungoogle-chromium-extensions cd ungoogled-chromium-extensions git clone https://github.com/zenorocha/codecopy git clone https://github.com/philc/vimium.git git clone https://github.com/OctoLinker/OctoLinker.git git clone https://github.com/ilGur1132/Smart-HTTPS.git git clone https://github.com/ovity/octotree.git git clone https://github.com/mrcoles/full-page-screen-capture-chrome-extension.git wget https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases/download/1.17.0/uBlock0.chromium.zip

That would be really great. To improve looking through new repos at least a litte bit I like the browser plugin [Octotree](https://github.com/buunguyen/octotree), it adds a tree view of the code and eases jumping between files.

Also an option: OctoTree [0], which adds tree view to github PRs too, as well as the source browser. [0] https://github.com/buunguyen/octotree/
