The egit plugin enriches Eclipse with knowledge about git
repositories, and allows you to download and upload commits (as well
as branch and the sorts...)

Regarding a JSON-syntax aware editors, I ran into this editor earlier this week:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/eclipsejsonedit/

But I have not tried it yet.

Peter, I do not know what you mean with a GitHub node? Like with
BitBucket, you still need a shared remote repository, or at least,
that's the easiest way to share changes with a lot of people...
