I built this. If there are bugs makes issues; I will fix them. I welcome suggestions and feature requests.
Very cool, does it support organizations? Eg, can octogit create a repo in one of my organizations, instead of my main account? Perhaps: octogit create git@github.com:org-name/new-repo-name.git 'new repo desc'

It's on Github. That means you could fix that and send a pull request to the developer (which is consructive) instead of making a "constructive criticsm".

#15Didn't play with it yet, but I have a question. I have an organization linked with my personal account. Is it possible to creat a repo for that organization, instead of one for myself using this tool?

Contributing to open source comes in many flavours. Bug reporting is one of them. I simply don't have the motivation to contribute more than this to a project which doesn't personally interest me. Instead of throwing the little I do give back in my face, why not make use of it?
Creating an issue wouldn't have taken much more effort. I think your tone is what most people are having a problem with. Re-read your comment, and imagine that it's someone commenting on one of your projects.

It's your grouchy tone.
Re: Octogit - Giving git more tentacles
#19My idea would be to make a prominent "on github" link or link the big title to the repo.

Had you changed your tone, submitted an issue, or as farslan suggested you could have taken an extra 5 minutes and submitted the changes yourself. If you had done that you would be a contributor to a great project, but unfortunately now you're just an ass.
