GitHub: Preserve URL fragment

GitHub: Preserve URL fragment in auth flow is a Chrome extension that ensures the URL fragment is not lost during the authentication process on GitHub. When redirecting to the authentication page, the extension ensures that the original URL with its fragment (e.g. '#L104') is preserved and returned to after authentication.
