Have a look at the help ->
http://help.github.com/

Here is a nice cheatsheet ->

You need to register to github but you don't need to ask for commit 
access : the best way of enjoying git is to make your own fork the 
trunk, work on it and then push the changes back. It is still possible 
to have one repo with everybody writing directly to it but, Tim will 
correct me, that's not the choice made at the hackfest.
