In my experience, most companies that use "github" (and not "git") cannot get much done if github is down.

- setquk 8y agoSo much this. All the pipeline and delivery stuff is glued into github’s API. Most companies aren’t using git any more but github and git is just a dependency. I’ve even seen developers who are unaware that git can exist without github. I incidentally think this is a completely terrible outcome.

- daveFNbuck 8y agoIt doesn't really mater what service provider you use. You can't do anything that requires a sync if the server is down. You can do a bit of local development, but things like automated tests and deployment to staging servers will tend to break if they can't access the source.
