The flying Octocat is pretty slick.

I like the idea of collecting news for individual Github repos. At least it's something I don't see on other Hacker News readers.

The graph should probably be placed in the Graphs section of GitHub. Having it on the main repo page just takes a lot of space.

Thank you for your suggestion. We're planning to add more related info about GitHub repos and replacing growth graph block. Never thought about the Graph section before. Might be a good place to place the growth graph. One concern is that our user might not know we have enhanced the graph section and never use this feature.

i find it's not only dislaying related hackernews stories of a repo, but also a pretty handy tool for studying the growth of the repo star history. neat! tks.
