things I wish github notified me about

the new github notifications (https://github.com/blog/1204-notifications-stars) leaves me wanting more!

  • when someone comments on a gist that I either own or have also commented on
  • when someone comments on a commit (in a project that I'm not part of) that I have commented on
  • when someone makes a commit to a fork of one of my repos

notifications settings should let you choose whether or not to receive emails for the above things. there should also be a web UI that shows you a list of all comments/messages for the above scenarios. at the moment https://github.com/notifications only shows you github issue names which is less useful than showing the actual message (the old notifications page showed actual messages)
