I can't seem to find a direct link, but in following page
http://fontello.com/#search=a
The second to last icon in group Typicon, which is a bold at symbol, looks
nice to me. It's a bit bolder than standard.

I like the color change you did.

I see wrapping in small screens like on my phone, were the at symbol is
broken away from the revision. Is it possible to prevent it? I even wonder
if it may look nice without space between them.
See one of the screenshots in attachment.

For the expanded sidebar, there is quite some empty space at the right
side, due to the PR count. I wonder if centering the text or text+icons
would still look nice, because that solve this problem.
(I'd try it but I'm on my phone now)

Two other screenshots show a repo summary page on my phone. I know it's not
related to your sidebar changes but I'm mentioning it anyway. The part with
trending files and the side block take two much space IMHO. For a better
mobile experience, this is something that can be improved. Not a priority
now, though.

Best regards,
Thomas
