Our .h/.c detection is still a little blurry between C, C++ and Obj-C. We have some plans to improve this based on files in the directory (if there's a .cpp, the .h is most likely C++) or keywords (If there's an @implementation keyword, it's most likely Obj-C) but we haven't had a chance to deploy it yet.
