Hey, this looks cool but I don't want grant write permission to my public and private repos just to get a daily status update. Is it possible to ask for read-only perm?

+1 to this sentiment... I want to use this service, but it requires I give it way too many permissions. I actually couldn't click "authorize" when I looked at how much access it wanted (probably an oversight, and nothing nefarious).

Hopefully it gets fixed, because this is sweet. I'd happily pay $20-$50 a month for my team to get an overview of github activity for our organization.

Yea I wish it was possible. The read/write repo permission is the only way I've found to be able to list all of the private repositories in an org. There's a few other threads in these comments that cover the specifics a little bit better but the gist is that GitHub has pretty coarse grained permissions unfortunately.

Looks like this has been fixed. I've just signed up and it was only asking for read permissions.

If I revoke the application from github and sign up again I am asked for write permissions to private repos still :(

+1 - I will never use this with these kinds of permissions.

It seems like you don't allow someone to get their organization's feed unless they are an admin for that organization. Is that correct? All I can get are my personal repos.

I'm able to access repos for organizations I'm not an admin for. That's very strange.

I'll have to look into it. Feel free to hit me up at [email protected] with your account info and I'll see what I can do.

Cool idea.

I can't tell from the screenshots: does it show changes across all branches in the repository?

Checked it out and it seems like it only does the default branch.
