- transitivebs 8y agoI've used the GH API extensively, and this is a common misconception. The default (no scope) allows you to access public repository info (source: https://developer.github.com/apps/building-oauth-apps/understanding-scopes-for-oauth-apps/ https://developer.github.com/apps/building-oauth-apps/unders...). This GH app, for instance, received similar feedback and its author removed the offending scopes without losing functionality: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11261953 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11261953
- iatek 8y agoIsn't this app reading the trending repos feed? I don't see where it pulls specific repo details. Anyway, I'll explore the default scope again.

- joeblau 8y agoI would definitely love to use this after you've made updates to the ACL. Could you please post a follow up when you've accomplished that.
