MyGit Extension

MyGit is a browser extension for GitHub. It is designed to provide extra convenient functions for GitHub user. MyGit supports public GitHub and GitHub Enterprise, due to limitation of browser extension, only the IBM GitHub enterprise is available now. If you need to support a new GitHub enterprise, please tell me to add.

Changes in v0.6.4:
Since public github is upgraded, some functions provided by MyGit can't work. This version will address the below problems:
* Fix bug of missing \"Add Favorite Repository\" menu
* Fix bug of \"Issue Preview\"
* Disable \"Label color list\" function

Changes in v0.6.3:
* Fix a bug when export issues

Changes in v0.6.2:

* Add a \"Export\" button in issue page, You can export issues as CSV file.
