OVERVIEW

Github High Scores is a fun way to rank Github repository contributors in a 8-bit, 80's-tastic viewing environment.

Installation

git clone git://github.com/leereilly/github-high-scores.git
cd github-high-scores
ruby app.rb

On Heroku, you can do something like this...

heroku config:add db_user=XXX db_pass=XXX db_host=XXX db_data=XXX
