This kind of feels like another "don't know how to use my tools" kind of post. I was doing some critical work during the last time. I had to collaborate with another developer and he was unable to push through github. So we exchanged code a different way. I was also doing EC2 tests of the code we were working on during this window. I didn't have trouble getting that deployed (via git, no less) during this time. It's easy to do the lazy thing and rely on centralized systems when it's completely unnecessary just to avoid a small amount of work to greatly increase the reliability of your platform.
