Same here, companies don't ever look at my Github code.
I built up a portfolio partly in the hope to make future interviews easier, but it hasn't worked at all!
I remember reading that comment about Google... even though a ton of people at Google use Homebrew. The question is, what would would you be writing at Google? Would you be reversing binary trees? Would you need to instantly know which sorting algorithm would be most efficient at the drop of a hat? or would you be building more tools like you already have. The one thing that isn't immediately clear from your GitHub is if YOU wrote the code and HOW you wrote the code. I'm not defending worthless practices like asking you all kinds of CS riddles that the interviewer doesn't even remember... but I am saying that there are reasons to test your ability to reason through a legitimate problem. Because of this, I am a huge fan of this style of interviewing: "We have a problem... tell us how you might approach solving this. What resources would you use? Why?"
"The one thing that isn't immediately clear from your GitHub is if YOU wrote the code and HOW you wrote the code."
Spend a few minutes looking at the commit history and all shall be revealed...
That "github is the new resume" meme a few years ago was quite funny, in retrospect. People panicking that they'd never be able to get another job, as they didn't have free time to code at the weekend...
