My two cents are they'll leverage the acquisition and get free marketing by moving Github to Azure. I'm less worried about them doing some 90's Microsoft chicanery (they've shown a real willingness to invest in dev goodwill in the past 5 years) than inadvertently letting Github fall into disrepair, by understaffing and shifting focus even more to the Enterprise offering.
I'm going to let things play out before judging. They might ramp up investment in the main Github platform, or open source Github because they're not relying on it as a cash cow.
