RSS Feeds for GitHub Project Releases and User Activity

As an extra to RSS feed for youtube channels and GitHub projects, Pawel notes that it’s also possible to get a feed for the releases published in GitHub Projects.

GitHub gives us RSS feeds for project releases and tags. Thats my preferred way of finding out about my followed projects fixed bugs and new features.

https://github.com/{{username}}/{{repository}}/releases.atom
https://github.com/{{username}}/{{repository}}/tags.atom

Ah, that I didn’t know!

I noticed that this also works for user activity feeds btw. Just like you can append .keys to any GitHub User Profile Page to see their public keys, you can append .atom to get their (public) activity feed.

https://github.com/{{username}}.atom

Here’s my activity feed for example: https://github.com/bramus.atom
