Github Improvements for Devs

Suggestions to make Github better.

  1. /issues need to remember your filters. Changing Milestones every time you view /issues and other flags drives me crazy.
  2. Wiki search. Under the /wiki, the right hand column called Pages lets you search titles. When your wiki grows and grows we need to search content of pages. Great search makes for finding documentation faster.
  3. Wiki content, search as you type for files in codebase so you can easily reference source code. Or even have something like :source filename.ext
  4. Better issue management. For large projects, organizing issues is starting to get too out of control. We have been using Kanban board like Huboard to help prioritize issues. I know others use things like Trello.
