Actually, "all your files are visible to everyone" isn't a restriction at all if you're using crypto.
Likewise, it's funny to think that you could encrypt your git repositories and use github public hosting for private projects. I wonder if someone already did, but I guess github wouldn't care (if you're doing this, you wouldn't be paying for the service anyway).
- wtracy 15y agoI suspect that most of GitHub's features are useless if the files you are uploading are encrypted. Seriously, are diffs of encrypted files going to be meaningful?
- a3_nm 15y agoActually, what I was saying amounts to using github as an agnostic data store, and doing the actual work on the clients. So, yeah, most of the usefulness of github goes away and you can just use pretty much any file hosting service.
