I would really rather just type my name in than give any random blog I want to comment on permission to "Update your public repositories (Commits, Issues, etc).

- thejosh 14y agoYeah, can't you define what permissions you use, similar to how google oauth operates? With github, shouldn't: - Read your public information. Be enough - it's no more than anyone else can find out about you!
- TkTech 14y agoIt requires that role to make new issue comments on your behalf, no way around it.
- nicpottier 14y agoThat's more than a bit of a deal breaker. Can't believe how many people have just handed him the keys to their Github account. It's the ultimate hacker honey pot!
- sirbrad 14y agoIt's the same info you'd give Dabblet or CodePen.
- nicpottier 14y agoWell I wouldn't give it to them either. Seriously, you would give a 3rd party full commit access to all your repos? That's crazy talk.
