Network - Too many forks to display #881

Open Mottie opened 7 years ago

Mottie commented 7 years ago

I don't know the cutoff, but at some point the network graph will display a "Too many forks to display" message (see https://github.com/WebpageFX/emoji-cheat-sheet.com/network). This is not helpful at all.

Please provide some information... even if the graph only shows the main repository. Even better, include the first 10, or so, forks as provided by the API (https://api.github.com/repos/WebpageFX/emoji-cheat-sheet.com/forks?sort=stargazers).

For now, I can use the API, or use @musically-ut's Lovely forks browser extension to get some information.

Hey Rob,

Thanks for getting in touch.

I'll pass your request for network graph improvement to our team to consider. I can't promise if or when we would implement but I'll for sure pass it along. Cheers Stacey

I do not find the network graph useful. So, I think it should be scrapped instead of investing resources into it. I just need to know a list of other contributors that have commits ahead (like the branch view).

The network graph is incredibly useful to the rest of the community. It's much quicker to see the whole structure than trying to figure it out via command line.
