Whoops! Should have looked at those more closely. I dropped the "Show HN".
We developed HuBoard[1] which is a similar product that now offers GitHub Enterprise support[2]
It is also free on GitHub[3] if you want to host it yourself.

This looks promising, and is definitely addressing a real problem. Even our relatively simple product is spread across dozens of private GitHub repos (lots of micro services, shared libraries and infrastructure-as-code repos).
Tracking issues that span repositories is enough of a problem that we had an intern take a stab at building a digraph of issues, with edges being references between issues (e.g., "requires #45"). We open-sourced the work in progress called issue-graph[1]. It has a long way to go before it's useful on it's own, but perhaps OP or others here would find it a useful jumping off point. We're very happy to take feedback.
I'm really looking forward to trying Codetree when it's ready. Derrick, feel free to email me (address in my profile) if you'd like some thoughts on the pain points I see. I would LOVE to pay for a product that addressed them.

Awesome, would love to chat. I'll drop you an email.
We developed ZenHub.io [1] with a similar vision - to centralize all our company workflows into GitHub. It's free and already in use by hundreds of happy teams.

If you're looking for a developer productivity tool that knows how to work with feature branches take a look at our Github integration at Blossom:

We recently found http://waffle.io and absolutely love it. It is essentially Trello using GitHub Issues as the data source with two way bindings.
Waffle is a cool product. As a product manager, I've found that task boards are not always the best way to keep my queue organized, so we are taking a bit of a different approach with Codetree.
Some screenshots or a detailed explanation of how this works would be great. I like the idea of the project, but with out knowing anything about it, I am hesitant to link this with my GitHub account.
Fair enough. More nitty-gritty details coming soon. FYI - I chose a very limited OAuth scope for pre-launch sign up. All I have access to is your email address and public GH profile stuff.

GitHub issues are so fundamentally unsatisfactory so that I can't use anything which lives on top of them. For example, it is impossible to remove maliciously or accidentally added issues...
Any thoughts on pricing for this? Will there be a free / low-cost version for open source projects?
I'd love something like this for my personal projects.

To be determined. The primary use case is for teams building their commercial products, but if it appears open source users could gain value from it then I'm not opposed.

We will likely start in the $9/user/month range.
Thanks for the questions!

I wanted to copy the referral link to write my own tweet, but highlighting the link doesn't show up as highlighted (even though it really is). FF 30.
Ah, good catch. It should still be highlighting, but I think the "selection" color is matching the background color of the text box. Will fix!
This looks great and solves a very real problem we have. Looking forward to using this!
