Releases and updates
RSS feeds for GitHub: trending, issues, pull requests, Actions
GitHub serves Atom feeds for a repository's commits, releases and tags, and MicroRSS finds them from any repository link. What GitHub does not serve, MicroRSS reads itself: the trending page, and a repository's open issues, pull requests and workflow runs through GitHub's API.
Paste github.com/trending (optionally with a language and a period) or a repository's Issues, Pull requests or Actions tab into Add Feed.

What you get
- Trending: one entry per repository the first time it trends, with the description, language, stars and the period's gain
- Issues and pull requests: the title, labels, author and the body rendered by GitHub itself
- Workflow runs: the outcome, branch, commit and who started it, for every workflow or one file
- Releases, commits and tags through GitHub's own Atom feeds, offered when you paste a repository link

Questions
- Does GitHub have RSS feeds?
- For commits, releases and tags of a repository, and for a user's activity, yes. Trending, issues, pull requests and Actions have none; MicroRSS reads those.
- Can I follow a private repository?
- No. MicroRSS reads public repositories only.
- Does a trending repository show up again the next day?
- No. A repository is one entry however many days it trends, so the feed stays short.
