Hubroid developer here.

I was in contact with the GitHub team for awhile and had a good idea that the app was in development for awhile, but since I didn't know when they'd be releasing it (internship with them fell through this year so I didn't get any top-secret info) I just decided to keep up developing Hubroid. Still going to do that, of course, I like my design ideas better. ;)

Oh, and the force close you get is sort of my fault. I erroneously used the "com.github" namespace when implementing the account authenticator, which wholly belongs to GitHub. Thought I was using "com.github.eddieringle" but I guess a commit was overridden once or twice. Whoops.

EDIT: Btw, thanks for spelling the name correctly. I couldn't tell you how many times people write "Hubdroid" instead. Ruins my Google search result ranking, heh.



Haha, well that is certainly one way to stick it to your competition ;)

But seriously, great app. Keep up the good work!
