fixhub

Note: I am no longer using or maintaining fixhub.

Recently, GitHub introduced Octicons, which broke GitHub for users browsing the web with their own fonts (e.g., Allow pages to choose their own fonts set to no in Firefox). fixhub replaces several of the Octicon font glyphs with PNG images or text labels so you can use GitHub with your own fonts.
