GitHub just now displayed a right hand margin with the title "About".
It then shows various categories and a description.
Was there something in my code that started this?
How to get rid of this?
I don't recall ever seeing before. It's the default? New?
A way to programmatically adjust?
New info from Aug 4, 2020 from Github support:
"Aug 4, 2020, 1:21 PM UTC"
"Sorry for not getting back to you as quickly as we'd like! Please accept my apologies.
I'm afraid there's no way to minimize or remove the "About" section built into GitHub, sorry!
I know that some of our users, who feel as you do, have attempted to come up with some browser extensions that restore the old UI.
They are mentioned in this thread of the Community Forum:"

Previous answer:
It turns out the answer to this question is that yes, github did in fact change the layout of the repository page. In doing so, they took away valuable real estate and made their web site less useful in some ways. My question is directed at the new feature listed as:
More content surfaced via the repository sidebar

If there is a way to return to github classic, I'd like to know.
Has the OWASP top 10 project not been updated since 2010?
Having had a look at the following site on OWASP I can see that this may be the case: https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Category:OWASP_Top_Ten_Project
My company is making a big deal out of OWASP compliance, so I just want to be sure that I'm up to date?
Update -- OWASP Top Ten 2017 was released. You can always find the latest version here. https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Category:OWASP_Top_Ten_Project
OWASP Top Ten 2013 was released today! You can download here http://owasptop10.googlecode.com/files/OWASP%20Top%2010%20-%202013%20-%20RC1.pdf
AFAIK - there is a 2013 update in progress.
Contact Dave Wichers for more info, or better yet, volunteer on the topten mail list. :)
Yes, the 2010 version of the OWASP Top Ten is the latest version. Before that, the last version was in 2007. If more people volunteered, it would get updated more often, but most of us who work on OWASP projects also hold down full-time day jobs, so progress can be frustratingly slow at times.
I have started to use Cloud9 IDE recently and have to say I really like it as an individual. I use VS 2010 at work and TFS 2010 too. This made me think about the TFS equivalent for Cloud9. GitHub is something I have always been aware of but never really used.
I have done my research and read docs etc, what I really need some clarification in though is the whole Work Item system. I know GitHub has an Issue tracking but does it have a Work Item system similar to TFS. With the main features such as assigning work items to developers?
A little explanation to just clarify would be fantastic. Thanks!
If you're looking for a way to have Issues show up like WorkItems in your task list in visual studio, I don't think there is a solution for this to date.
You can however assign developers to issues within GitHub:
Create or Edit an Issue
Click the gear next to "No one is assigned".
Select a member from your organization to assign the issue to them.
Have someone used with success TRAC ticketing + wiki system accessing a code base residing in Perforce repository?
I've browsed in the TRAC related web sites and found this one, but the latest change on the page is something like an year ago, so I have concluded (correct me if I'm wrong) that the plugin is hardly in working state OR that for some reason there is no recent developments.
We are using Trac with Perforce, based on the PerforcePlugin you already mentioned. We have used the combination for about 1.5 years.
The plugin is basically stable enough for day-to-day work, but be prepared to fiddle with server memory allocation and have patience if working with large repositories. Also, it has some irritating bugs, and as you have already noticed, development seems to have stalled completely. In fairness it must be said that some of the bugs are due to shortcomings in Trac behaviuor and incompatability with "The Perforce Way".
Would I install Trac with Perforce again? Probably not. If forced to use Perforce, I would consider Redmine + Perforce.
Something else to watch out for on Trac-hacks is the quantity and content of the open tickets for the plug-in. The PerforcePlugin has a lot of open tickets.
This update may help you: http://lynxline.com/tracperforce/, people got it working okay with Trac 1.0
There are many free online services which provides you with large spaces to store your personal materials, mails, etc. But is there any place that can let us host our code - which keeps the change history?
Google Code or SourceForge may not be a ideal place because it requires creating a project which is specific and useful to others, while what I want is a place to hold any kind of code which I think is useful but may not be for anybody else.
It's all about Github. 300 MB repository for free. Nice interface, easy to use. Plus we all know GIT > SVN :)
You can get free GIT and SVN hosting at unfuddle.com
BitBucket allow for public and private Mercurial repositories.
Github has Gists that might work for you. Also, Snipplr.
http://codeplex.com is where MS provides open source source control via Team Foundation Server.
projectlocker is also a good alternative for free Subversion, Git hosting..
You can also get free, private SVN hosting at http://beanstalkapp.com/. Their 100MB package is free.
Google Code link.
How about http://cvsdude.com/ which paid or http://xp-dev.com/ which is free.
come on guys don't you see that he is interest only in hosting online some fragments
of code like some functions etc not full projects and also not public but private.
Of course it is possible with each and every solution you all said in your posts
but it is not exactly what he was looking for .
You all replied like spammers and is that's funny
So why don't you just use http://gist.github.com/
as someone already mentioned
You can host private projects on DevjaVu is you want to use Subversion.
http://www.svnhostingcomparison.com/
CVSDude does free 2M subversion repository, you can also use CVS if you pay.
I've used http://planetsourcecode.com/ to store all sorts of bits of code. Users even upload entire applications.
There are even online code editors available (well, a kind of, that project is still in the development phase).

I've used CodeSpaces for over a year now and never had a problem. I'm a new user so I apparently can't post links...
There are plenty of answers already submitted which are suited to hosting full-fledged applications so I won't bother adding to the list but if you're looking at hosting smaller things (code snippets, simpler projects) with revision history you could consider using a wiki?
I know this was posted 4 years ago, but you could always just sign up on Pastebin and have private source code there.
Pastebin has been around since 2002 and is currently "the #1 paste tool". It supports a number of syntaxes (including C++, C, Ruby, and Java. Full list on site.)
Edit;
Their PRO plan is only $2.95 USD for one month or $1.99 USD/mo if you purchase for a full year. You can find out more on the limits of free vs Pro here.
Edit 2;
If nothing else, sign up for Dropbox, SkyDrive, or Mediafire and upload your files there.
