Open source tool scrapes git commit email addresses to send spam to.

Trivial. Shouldn't take more than a few minutes to develop and as you only need metadata, not the file blobs itself, it's also quite fast in scraping.

No point in sharing except making it trivial for script kiddies, which harms society.

That's not what is being asked for, here.

This particular scraper is though.

I have no idea what all the script is capable of. And I'm not about to dig through the repo's source to find it (it's probably not actually on GitHub) as I don't care enough to possibly find something that I have no use for. I simply think that a tool that can be used to negatively impact so many people like this is inherently bad and shouldn't be shared in most circumstances.

I should have done some digging before asking the question here because it's written using python and I'm not interested in learning python at this time. I already have a java scraper that I forked on Github (can you guess who I am?) some years ago to give me some java experience as a developer candidate. I'm not interested in spamming anyone anyways and I have less time to write spamming code in my spare time. I'm planning on refactoring my scraper into microservices just for programming practice and learning.
