Redundancy provides availability more than reliability.
The odds of GitHub going down and your local copy/instance simultaneously is very low so availability is high.
Reliability is how often GitHub or your local instance goes down.
- raquo 9y agoYour local instance of github and github.com are not redundant / interchangeable. If either of those goes down and you rely on it, the other one is not gonna help you much, so availability is not improved by using a local instance.
