Friends do not let friends use github.

The pull request in github does not handle rebasing correctly.  The github Web
interface is useless, and you have to use the RESTful API for anything a bit
sophisticated.  I know, I spent 2 months of hell editing
draft-ietf-p2psip-base with this piece of crap.

Gerrit is far better at anything github does.  Unfortunately there is no
public repository supporting Gerrit and that's a shame.  People interested in
trying Gerrit can contact me directly.
