Code repository service GitHub released its shiny new mobile app earlier this year, but work on the application didn't stop there. The v1.1 update made reviewing pull requests and finding code in a project much easier, and now v1.2 is rolling out.
The new update again has more improvements for viewing pull requests — you can mark files as viewed, which collapses them in the list of changed files (for easier management). My favorite addition in v1.2 is that Markdown formatting, images, and PDF files are now displayed properly when browsing code, just like on the desktop GitHub site.
