  Thank you! I was looking for this in the article itself. Now I see that the redesign looks like a good step forward.

  The new design looks stunning next to the older one - which already looked good. Am I the only one wishing the readme was above the file list? In my case, I often read the readme and rarely look at the files, and as a landing page standpoint it seems logical that the readme would be front facing instead of hidden at the bottom. I'm curious what's the reasoning behind that order, since it's been that way forever and GitHub seems to be fairly dedicated to elegant and thoughtful design while being open to change, I imagine there must be a good explanation.

    That would be quite annoying with large READMEs. I could see it being useful the first time I view a project, but any time after that there's a good chance that I'd rather see the file list.

  Anyone know what the green button does? edit: It's for pull requests. When you enable the new design, you get a quick explanation of the green button and where the clone URL has moved to. So far I'm really liking the new design!
