It sort of makes sense with MS being the owner. I definitely notice that a lot of the new grads don’t really know about git. They think it’s all Github.

- grogenaut 7y agoI've had a lot of freelancers lately who when I ask for their ssh public key they send me their GitHub username. Like 10 in a row. Half of them had public keys even. Yet at work no one has this issue with our ghe
- GauntletWizard 7y agoYeah, I don't get that. I use my github as a repository of my public keys - At least partially because Ubuntu will now ask for a github username to prefill authorized_keys, but I had a curl script set up before that - But I would not confuse "Here's where there's an updated list of my keys" for "Here's a key"; The response is, at best, `*[]key` rather than `key` (and assuming you know the github.com/$USER.keys syntax, which isn't exactly standard)

Everyone is tired of git and just goes to Microsoft VSCode Repos. With "gh" in theory they could do that: get everyone using a custom tool... and while no one is paying attention, change out the backing infrastructure to use MS Repos Tool. And you wont even notice because gh was built to make the transition seamless. (I doubt this is truly the case because there is a lot of automated tooling that uses git that would break in that case) And now when you decide you want to pull your code off github to go to gitlab, it becomes too much of a hassle.
