I'm using git-hub as well and I find it very DWIM and more complete. (Have to add that I'm also a collaborator now, so maybe a bit biased)
I couldn't figure out how to use git-repo.
When I figured out which command I have to use to list pull requests for github, it asked me for my ssh key password. I was wondering why it would need my ssh key at all, so I tried -v, but -v did nothing.
Then I gave up.
Also, it lacks tab completion, as far as I can see, while git-hub supports it for bash and zsh. And since the order of the commandline arguments is not fixed (`request list` vs. `request <user>/<repo> list`) it might be actually difficult to add completion.
I'm developing a generic completion generator, which would allow to add completion to existing commands, but it's not able to deal with this dynamic commandline argument order.
