GitHub Freshness compares each update time with your configured freshness period and uses different colors for recent and older content. The colors below are examples; background, text, and file icon colors can all be changed in Feature settings.

Repository file list ​

Repository pages highlight file and directory update times within GitHub's existing layout. A settings shortcut appears after the Code button.
