I'm curious if anyone has any insight into something: Google seems to have recently changed their algorithm, and now Github repos have basically disappeared from the search results.

If I want to try and get a repo to show up on Google again, does anyone have any suggestions for how I might optimize my repo's home page?

Publish a simple Github project page explaining your project and linking to the repository. You have much more control over the content there (because it's a static HTML page) than you do over Github's repository indexes.

For what it's worth, I still see Github repos in Google search results. e.g. A search for 'nodejs github' brings up the the node.js Github repo as the first result. It's possible that Google have changed their algorithm in a way that affects these pages, but they certainly haven't removed them altogether.
