Wayne, were these issues raised previously? Yes, GitHub is not the most ideal of tools for many reasons, but there are workarounds that can be applied client-side. One of the quickest is to set your browser to pretend to be a mobile/phone device. This results in GitHub going into mobile view, which linearises reasonably well and is reasonably responsive (though some advanced functionality is stripped from those pages).
