more information

The tool creates 2 files and a directory, a config file ~/.githubkeep.conf, a log file ~/.githubkeep.log and a directory ~/.githubkeep. Github-peek downloads the tar:gz of the repo, extracts it and saves it to ~/.githubkeep. There is a naive caching mechanism, where the tool deletes all repos after 5 times of using the app.
