- tomsmeding 10y agoThat's simply not true.
- guessmyname 10y agoYou got to be kidding. Please read VERY CAREFULLY what is Git [1] and what is GitHub [2]. The fact that GitHub only hosts Git repositories is only a matter of choice, Git repositories can be hosted in any server without any (big) restriction. Please restrain yourself from making useless comments if you don't have enough information about it.

- gjm11 10y agoGiven that J_Darnley's HN profile includes a link to his GitLab profile, I think it's fair to guess that he was being sarcastic.
- J_Darnley 10y agoCongratulations.
- greghendershott 10y agoI feel badly for the person who didn't realize you were sarcastic, passionately defended the idea that git != github, and got down-voted as their congratulations.
