Slick design, however, I don't understand the buttons. Why is 'eval' a joystick and commit a box?

Also, whenever I hit Preview I get a 500.

Sorry, guys. We have SSH key pairs pregenerated for speed reasons and we've just run out of them today. Now everything should be OK.

We're changing that joystick to a VCR like play button.

The commit one being a box hints at a shell or terminal, since we couldn't find an official Git icon. Could maybe put the GitHub Octocat there - what do you think?

How about the icon from the Git website?

Octocat gets my vote.

You would have to ask Github, as they own the copyright to Octocat.

Thanks for pointing out the 500 error occurring for new apps. Existing apps are unaffected and we are looking into it.
