GitHub Lines Viewed

🔎 Enhancing the PR progress bar on GitHub to show lines viewed instead of files. 📝

Why?

Ever find yourself near the end of a review with one last file to look at, only to find the last file has another 387 lines of changes you need to read through?

If you find GitHub's review progress bar to be misleading then this is the browser addon for you! It changes the progress bar to be based on the number of lines viewed, rather than the number of files.

You don't need to do anything differently, the progress bar will be replaced by the extension, and you can enjoy a more helpful experience.
