- Someone 13y agoYes, GitHub calls them repositories, but, even on its home page, also calls them projects (https://github.com https://github.com: "Powerful collaboration, code review, and code management for open source and private projects.") Looking at http://www.googlefight.com/index.php?lang=en_GB&word1=GitHub+project&word2=GitHub+repository http://www.googlefight.com/index.php?lang=en_GB&word1=GitHub..., that also seems to be common terminology. Also, both URL and title of the article (http://www.takipiblog.com/2013/12/26/the-top-100-most-popular-scala-libraries-based-on-10000-github-projects/ http://www.takipiblog.com/2013/12/26/the-top-100-most-popula...) do talk of projects. Before GitHub (and, to a lesser extent, SourceForge), you would not find stuff such as https://github.com/Dub4ek/Scala_Ex https://github.com/Dub4ek/Scala_Ex (one 20 line file, called Week1ExerSizes.sc (sic)) in the same places as, say, the gcc or NCSA Telnet sources.
