GitHub Feed Filter Extension

GitHub Feed Filter reads through the visible feeds in the GitHub News Feed section and lists them in the page just like Your Repos or Watched Repos.

Clicking on a repository will filter out your News Feed to only include feeds from that repository. This filtering can be further extended to show only the feeds for Commits, Comments or Issues made in that repository.

It also saves your current search term and currently selected category when you fetch 'More' items to the feed.
