+1000. Github routinely detects the wrong language for my projects, and there is no way to manually override it. My take is this: If you want to auto-detect the language, fine... but let the owner of the repo override your detection when it's wrong. It's probably also a bug to even have the notion of "a language" for a repo given the burgeoning polyglot programming trend. So many repos these days contain multiple languages, especially when you consider javascript, that I question if it even makes sense to say 'This project is in language X' at all. Like you say, the best option really would be to let the repo owners / maintainers just specify this stuff. They are, after all, the ones who know. |
