I look at SoureForge's fall, and of all the possible futures for GitHub, is this really that bad? GitHub has been on a track to sell and/or monetize more aggressively for years. Of everyone that could afford GitHub, Microsoft has the money on hand to spend a bit of time figuring out a sustainable business model that doesn't run everyone off, and has doubled down on buying developer good will in the recent years.
My more personal take is: if you hate Microsoft's track record, you should have every other big software company at least as much. Were there really better realistic possibilities for GitHub?
