Render the error page in the shared page shell

2026-09-10T18:58:18Z

error.eta carried its own copy of the HTML shell, so error pages missed the viewport meta tag, the build-commit footer, and the link to the original GitHub page. The renderer already passes githubUrl and buildCommit to every template, so the layout needs nothing new from app.ts.

Split the page shell out of the repository layout

2026-09-05T01:49:59Z

layout.eta was two things at once: the HTML shell every page needs and the repository chrome around it. owner.eta, being the one page that is not about a repository, could use neither and carried its own copy of the shell, which had drifted -- its footer named no build commit and did not link to the original page on GitHub. The shell moves to views/layouts/base.eta, taking its title and any deferred scripts as layout data, and the chrome to views/layouts/repo.eta, a layout over it that adds the clone commands, nav, search box, and the "/" shortcut that focuses it. Repository pages point at repo.eta and render as before; owner.eta uses base.eta directly and so gains the footer it was missing. Templates now live in more than one directory, so scripts/build.ts walks views/ recursively and keys each template by its path underneath it. Names crossing a directory are written from the views root ("/layouts/base.eta"), the one form both Eta's filesystem resolver and the precompiled resolver in worker.ts agree on; siblings stay relative.

Clean up renderer, redirects, and build commit

Link blobs to their history and back

2026-09-04T02:16:44Z

Nothing in a commits payload says whether the path it lists is a file or a directory: currentBlobPath, despite the name, is only the path filter, and is set for a directory just the same. GitHub's own UI cannot tell either, and points its browse button at /blob// so that the redirect resolves a file to its blob. We do the same, and the blob route already turns that redirect into one of our own tree URLs. Breadcrumbs now stay in the view they were clicked from, so walking up from a history lands in the history of each parent directory rather than in its listing. The last crumb remains the page you are already on. A path with no commits now says so rather than rendering an empty page.

Anchor blob lines so #L fragments work

2026-09-03T05:27:35Z

Wrap each rendered line in a , for both syntax-highlighted and plain-text blobs, and shade the line a fragment targets.

Render repository wikis

2026-09-03T05:09:10Z

Wikis are one of the last parts of GitHub still served as plain Rails HTML, with no embedded JSON to read, so this scrapes the markup: a page and any older revision of it, the _Sidebar and _Footer a wiki can define, and the page index. Every page is already in the sidebar of every page, since the "Show N more pages" button only unhides the rest, so linking the whole wiki costs no second request. Routes mirror GitHub's and resolve in its order, so an underscore name reserved for its own actions (_pages, _history, _new, _edit) can never be mistaken for a page; the ones we don't serve fall through to the usual redirect. A slug reaches us decoded and has to be encoded again rather than interpolated the way a ref is, or a page named C# would truncate at the fragment.

Display PDF blobs

2026-08-27T18:53:38Z

GitHub renders a PDF with a viewer of its own and so ships no content for one, leaving the blob view with nothing to show. Its raw bytes come as application/octet-stream, which browsers download rather than display, so serve them from a new embed route that retypes them and point an at that.

Scroll on / search shortcut

Handle blobs GitHub cannot preview

2026-08-12T05:42:59Z

Binary files with no preview (a .ttf, say) have no rawLines, no colorizedLines and no richText, so the blob view's final branch threw on a null textLines and the page 500ed. Offer the raw file instead. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5

Read the About box and latest release from JSON

2026-08-11T22:25:26Z

GitHub rebuilt the repository sidebar, so the selectors parseRepoInfo used matched nothing and the About box rendered empty. Everything but the latest release is in the page's embedded payload as sidebarAbout; the latest release is only in the _sidebar JSON already fetched for languages, so it arrives with that fragment and is moved beside the release count.
