It's all about not forgetting to create the issue: you just put your // TODO and not go out of your editor.

An IDE plugin could do the trick nicely too (create an issue by right-clicking on a TODO for example). But a git hook is more portable.

In fact the first prototype was a shell script using grep and ghi (https://github.com/stephencelis/ghi).

Anyway, it depends on your workflow, if you already have the right tools and habits no to lose your TODOs in your deep code, Github-Todos is obviously of no use for you!

Ah ah nope, and that arised fast (issue #4) ;)

But definitely, if you find it useless, then it certainly is for you! I was just telling why others could find it useful :)
