I would argue that if you are non-technical enough that you need this type of data on a web page for you, you probably don't actually need this data and I'd be wary that you're just looking for a way to find out who broke something so you can be shitty to them.

If you really want to know this type of commit-level data you can get it from git pretty easily, even if you're not particularly good with git but can search half-decently. If you don't have the skills to use git, it's extremely unlikely that knowing what the current branch and commit status of the repository is will meaningfully help you do your job.



I want this information and I can easily pull it out of git. I still want the webpage too because I don’t want to take 15 manual steps and open twenty different Github pages every time I want to find out.
