You sure that it's actually owned by GitHub?

github.com shows that it's registered through GoDaddy. hitgub.com is registered via namecheap, and has its contacts hidden.

One possible scenario: GitHub may have been young, foolish, and naive, and originally registered their domain with GoDaddy.

Then they woke up and realized what a STEAMING PILE GoDaddy is as a company, and corrected the error of their ways for their other domains. :)

Just my random $.02 :)

Fair point; I assumed it was given it redirects to github.com.
