MacOS error .Fsed: 1: "./bobsrepo.I ...": invalid command code . #1

Great work on this project! I could only get page 1 of the results, then I'd get the error message in the title. The issue is the MacOS version of sed. To solve this issue

  1. brew install gnu-sed
  2. go into the python file and replace sed with gsed

Problem solved! Hope this helps

Wow, I did not expect anyone else would spend the time to understand what it does and how to use it. Thanks for the tip, I've updated the docs.

I’ve found it incredibly helpful. My use case is tracking repos that crack Parallels desktop cracks, on Thursday it found forked 600 repos, that would be a nightmare to try to do by hand. Thanks for sharing your work! Pat
