Also the header block in the CSS file should be changed so that autoupdating works:

At 3440x1440 resolution some of the repo navigation items disappear. This fixes it for me:

 .js-selected-navigation-item {
      visibility: unset !important;
  }

Uses !important because it appears to be controlled by a resize event handler.
