Summary

Create a logo for the git-hub tool.

Brief Description

This is tool to be able to easily interact with GitHub as an extension to the git command. Its main strength is the ability to merge pull requests by rebasing changes instead of forcing a merge commit.

Why git-hub is cool / important?

This tool simplifies developers work by allowing them to focus on the console, minimizing back and forth with the browser. It also enables merging pull requests by rebasing changes instead of forcing a merge commit, a feature that GitHub itself is lacking.

Ideas for the Logo

Since this is a GitHub-related tool, the octocat could be somehow included. Maybe an octocat in ASCII art, given that this is a console tool. Also the Git logo could be used as some sort of inspiration.

Final Output

To be used on GitHub repo, stickers, etc. potentially even external website (if one is made).

Extra Goodies

Colour scheme and suggested font for further work on a potential website.

FWIW, octocat FAQ says:

Since the Octocat is a registered trademark of GitHub, using an Octocat as your logo or icon is not allowed.

Thanks for the heads up @jwilk! @dylan-cromwell-sociomantic FYI.

Once this is ready I think I will release v1.0.0 instead of v0.11. I think we haven't got breaking changes in ages and the tool is definitely production ready, we've been using it also for ages on a daily basis, so why scare users with unstable version numbers? :)
