I love GitHub and their gist service, and that's why I'm keeping a lot of code snippets and even development notes as a gist on my GitHub account. It also makes it easy to share them with my colleagues.
The problem is that it doesn't scale!! The GitHub features for gist are primitive, and I have lots of gists there which make it really difficult to find some of my old gists. There's no search, no tagging, or anything.
Do you know any application that can handle this mess? I would like an application that could
I would love to see something like this, and I'm willing to pay even some bucks for it.
So how do you manage you gists on GitHub? Do you know any software?
There's one called drift written in MacRuby, but I couldn't compile it, and it hasn't been updated for a while.
Check out GistBox. It supports searching, editing and labels. Here's a screenshot:
There's also a demo video at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLgyY6lqpsQ
GistBox Clipper (a Chrome extension) also provides the ability to save <pre>
tags and arbitrary text on any web page.
Edit:
Unfortunately, GistBox is becoming Cacher cacher.io - the free plan will only include: 15 private snippets, 3 private labels, unlimited public snippets. If you plan on having many private gists then you will need to but (sic) a paid plan. – Bartek Skwira
