personal access token should only use public_repo scope by default
Thanks for such a nice project!
From the security perspective, I think it had better to check only public_repo
access by default when we click the Generate One link.
I in this case, we can replace the following link:
- https://github.com/settings/tokens/new?scopes=repo&description=GitHub%20Issue%20Link%20Status
+ https://github.com/settings/tokens/new?scopes=public_repo&description=GitHub%20Issue%20Link%20Status
Also, It's worth to mention if someone wants to use this extension in the private repositories, we can mention that by saying something like: "To use this extension in the private repositories, consider give repo
scope to use."
Wdyt?
I'd love to copy this UI to this repository:
- https://github.com/refined-github/refined-github/pull/3774
- https://github.com/refined-github/refined-github/pull/4207#issuecomment-814621346
In reality, no scopes are required to read public information.
PR welcome
