Firefox is a windows program, no?

Kind of like being upset that github doesn't support Visual Source Safe because that's the "Windows" tool?

I suppose it's not really the same, since visual source safe doesn't come with Windows, but still... you went through the trouble of installing git, why wouldn't you consider installing another browser just for github access?  Seems like it would be easier than dealing with half-assed support from github.

I have opera installed on my computer just to read the D newsgroups.  I don't use it as a browser.  I just think of it as my D newsgroup tool.

Just saying...

Oh, and there's also http://windows.github.com/  Seems like they've done a lot of work since the first release, maybe it's less buggy.

Also just noticed there's an iPhone app!  cool, must install now.
