> I think the issue is the posturing as open source, having a github repo with no code just to attract devs and look open source-y
As the first paragraph in the README says, we use the GitHub repo to host releases and issues.
Having it on GitHub under the same organization as our other projects that already are open-source is convenient for both us and our users — https://github.com/httpie.

The person who shared it is not related to HTTPie.
Given the quality of the discourse here, I almost wish they did not! ;-)
