GitHub (and the Mac/Windows clients they publish that work against non-Github git repos as well as GitHub ones) is probably a huge part of the reason Git has 27.6% of the "market" in the first place. In fact, I think the blog post here reaches the wrong conclusion, in that everything he thought about using git is actually (still) true, but it is widely successful anyway because of other projects (mostly related directly to GitHub) which hide the complexity of git from the "9-5" developers.
