I can see the value in this, but I probably wouldn't use it. I run a WAMP server on my desktop and have made an Alias in my httpd.conf to my Github Repos directory, allowing me to cruise in and see example html pages very easily. I just clone the repo in windows, and then I can use /git/REPO/coolthing.js in a script tag. I use a chrome extension for rendering README.md (markdown) files.

I use Apaxy (http://adamwhitcroft.com/apaxy/ ) to get a better folder view. The instructions for setting up an Alias are here: http://serverfault.com/questions/7323/httpd-conf-and-setting...

Hope this helps someone out there. It's really simple to do.

*actually, I may use it, but I do my own, similar, thing!
