techpeace:
For anyone on OSX recieving the following error when issuing the github command:

techpeace@thea:~/github_techpeace$ github pull defunkt
/opt/local/bin/github:19:in `load': no such file to load -- github (LoadError)
	from /opt/local/bin/github:19

… then all you need to do is reset permissions on the github executable:

techpeace@thea:~/github_techpeace$ sudo chmod a+r+w+x /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/defunkt-github-0.1.3/bin/github 

NOTE: sudo chmod a+r /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/defunkt-github-0.1.3/bin/github is all that is necessary. Don’t be needlessly permissive. (ReinH)

tchandy:
if you are in linux, to solve the problem, use:

root@tchandy:/home/tchandy/Documents/# chmod a+r /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/defunkt-github-0.1.3/bin/github

github-gem 0.1.1
In a folder where a github URL is not the origin remote, the github command chokes and spits out:

lin-8szw:Documents shane$ github pull git://github.com/defunkt/github-gem.git
