github (light) theme colors don't match 2025-08-29 colors used by GitHub.com #76

Description

@clach04

Looking at https://github.com/tinted-theming/tinted-gallery/blob/main/build.sh via a web browser (with default light theme), it looks different to the preview available in the gallery at https://tinted-theming.github.io/tinted-gallery/

I've only checked github (the light one, not the dark one). At the very least a set of colors has been swapped.

I'm not using the GitHub scheme myself, I just noticed it when creating some sample preview screenshots in https://github.com/tinted-theming/base16-scintillua/tree/main/docs/images

This gallery is generated from tinted-theming/tinted-vim.

Whilst Tinted Gallery claims this is derived from Base24, it looks like Bsae16 is also impacted:
