Looking at the screenshots, it looks like it could use some UI polish (http://worqshop.com/). For now, this will keep me from dropping $5 on this. My primary use case would be writing text (not code), and for that I value the great UI/UX of iA Writer over being able to save directly to GitHub.
I'd be curious to hear what other common use cases there are for this. In addition to writing text (Jekyll-powered blog), I might use this to make quick fixes on the go or review issues/pull requests.
It seems like actually writing significant amounts of code on the iPad is probably not a common use case. I refuse to believe this is productive compared to using a real computer with multitasking, Vim/emacs/Sublime Text, etc.
Anyway, if this were my app I'd focus on making the experience great for doing issues/pull requests and typing text (in comments on the aforementioned or in files). I wouldn't focus on actually writing code. But it's clearly not my app :)
In any case, great work -- I'm looking forward to seeing this app progress.
Dude doesn't get IOS usability. At all.
It would be great if there was an option for side by side SSH session and code editor, that way you could push and then check on the remote build (for people that have such setups).
Otherwise, looks like an awesome app!
I imagine the devs were wise enough to include "github" in the list of search keywords that you're allowed to attach to your App Store submission.
That will allow people to search there for github and see the app in the list of launchable items.

This has nothing to do with the appstore other than a way to get a keyword on the phone. The App KEYWORDS do not help the on Springboard Spotlight search.
