Watch all repos in an org

[jdforsythe]

I review code for a lot of repos and new repos are created often that I won't remember to add each one to the app. I'd rather subscribe to all repos for the organization (maybe with an ignore list).

This is a good use case that I didn't consider (think my org has something like 70,000 repositories). This could be difficult to implement with the current way Omniscience handles searching/notifications, but I'm currently reworking quite a bit of that backend at the moment so it may be something I could do as part of that. I'll update this thread with any updates, thanks for the suggestion!

Another option might be a "notify of new repos in org" type feature.

This might be as simple as storing the newest created timestamp for any repo in the org.

Once in awhile you can hit get the org's repo list in reverse created order, getting pages until you find the matching timestamp of the last known repo, then notify the user of new repos and allow subscribing at that time.

This would be much simpler than keeping the list in-sync with GitHub. I'd have to delete repos manually but that's much less of an issue than remembering to add new repos.
