Github shows name instead of a linked username in commits

I just helped a friend to set up a Github account to collaborate on my project.

It seems strange, since Github obviously recognizes him (I added him to the list of collaborators etc....

heroku using git branch is confusing!

Ok, so I have a big github project that i'm not supposed to merge my little Stacia branch into. However, it seems like Heroku only takes pushing MASTER seriously. It looks like I pushed my branch, but for example if I only have my branch, it even acts like there's no code on the server. I can't even get my gems installed since the .gems ...

How do you use Netbeans to work with a Github project?

From what I can tell, nbGit doesn't talk to Github. The best idea I've had so far is to install msysgit, use it to clone the repository to the local drive, then point nbGit at the local clone (creating a second repository). Then I would use nbGit to talk to the repository on disk, and msysgit to sync the on-disk repository with Github....
