Ask HN: Know any other GitHub tricks like: ?ts=2

2 points by sbr464 7y ago ↗ HN

I discovered a long time ago that you could add the query param "?ts=2" to change the tab spacing when viewing a repo on Github. I couldn't find it documented anywhere or able to save as a default (when viewing random repos). I was curious if there are any others like this?

Here's an example, you can remove the ?ts=2 to see the original width.

I've used the w=1 to ignore whitespace in diffs. Found a link [0] with some others.

I've used ?sanitize=true to allow me to programmatically embed renderable SVG content from a repo into Github Markdown comments, etc ...
