The 350 GitHub t-shirts we gave away at RailsConf 2008 last weekend were a huge hit! For anyone that wasn’t there, the fronts say “fork you” and the backs say “github.com/__“. We’ll be making these shirts available for purchase very soon!
In case you grabbed one but didn’t get the memo, the back is designed so that you can write in your GitHub username with permanent ink. So grab a Sharpie and show off your work with pride!
