Or even, "Most recent commit" information. I've run across plenty of interesting looking projects, last commit 7 years ago, README.md references Ubuntu 12.04 LTS as the preferred platform... Could I make that work? Probably, if I cared enough. Do I want to? Not unless I can't find something newer and similar enough.

Depends on the type of tool of course, but some tools are done and all bugs are fixed. There is no need for continuous commits if a tool is complete and functional. One of the CLI tools I use every day (minor filesystem management tool, written by me for me) hasn't had a commit since 1991. But I use it every single day, it does what it needs to do.
