Please add last commit date #32

Closed edo1 closed 3 years ago

It would be useful to see when the last commit was made.

Even better would be to see the date of the last upstream commit as well, because "70 commits behind" say nothing about dates. But not sure how difficult it will be.

I might add it as an option (through the gear icon). I don't think it'll be available by default because I think it'll require an extra API call (which are already quite limited).

it would be great.

maybe it makes sense to get the dates of the fork by an explicit request? (button or something like that)

Not a bad idea. I'll consider it.

Turns out the pushed_at data was already part of the responses. As a result, the date (of the last commit pushed on any branch) is now shown by default, and at no cost, for all searches.

Thanks for making this great suggestion! :)
