Hi, I am the author of the library on Github.

First of all, Github is not free for Open Source, it is free for public projects (https://github.com/pricing). Not just for OSS, if the repo is public, it is free.

Is Git Flow Chart Open Source? No, it is not. Choosing an OSS license would make it hard to make money on the plugin. On Atlassians marketplace, this means that if your project is OSS, you get it for free, but if you are a paying user of Stash, you also pay for the plugin. We want to follow the same lines with Github: public repos are free, so you can use the chart on them for free. If you pay for a private repo at GitHub, for now, you cannot use the chart. We may make it available, but at a cost. However, we do want to share the code and allow you to inspect, study and contribute improvements. The core code of Git Flow Chart is hosted on GitHub. It is a javascript library and comes with unit tests and a standalone HTML page that allows you to test improvements locally. Feel free to fork.

Thanks,

I'm glad to learn gitHub rephrased their offer from "free for open source" to "free for public projects", it's more straightforward.

You might want to create a LICENSE.md, or to make the following sentence stand out in your README, right now it's buried in the middle of a paragraph: "I will keep use of the plug-in free for non-commercial and personal use."

And just to finish that thought, GitHub also offers free organization plans, but only for open source projects, that is, projects with approved open source licenses. Details on GitHub.
