Totally agree - though I wish they would show files > 2Mb though on the web editor.

I develop directly on github - I even make all my commits to the Master branch, as this allows me to code with a nexus 7 tablet if necessary.

So this outage was a PITA for me. However I have plan B and started up tomcat...

Saved the day!

P.S. Thanks github for the free hosting! I can't really complain .
