Asked @holman about the blue (https://twitter.com/holman/status/248690023887675392):

  @damncabbage: @holman Was the removal of the blue from
  the repo commit timeline bar-graphs intentional? Update
  looks good, by the way. :)

  @holman: @damncabbage definitely. Blue behind text
  would be really distracting.

  @damncabbage: @holman Hmm, point. What about having
  the blue appear when the timeline fades in on hover,
  or just a darker shade of grey?

  @damncabbage: @holman The post over at HN has a few 
  reasons why some of us are a bit blue about the
  missing, uh, blue in the graphs:

  @holman: @damncabbage We’re pretty pleased with it.
(??? Confused about that last one.)


I miss the blue too, so I made an extension that adds the old-style coloring for your commits: https://github.com/typpo/github-participation-graph


... And the blue is now back: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4560768
