In general, paying GH tends to be much cheaper than employing a team of SREs that'll keep your on-prem Git instance up and running 24/7 (esp. including things like backups, disaster recovery, and similar good practices necessary for any enterprise-ready SaaS).
Something tells me that if you can schedule upgrades "outside of business hours", your scale is small (because in a global company, it's always "business hours" somewhere), which makes the cost argument even more prominent.
- bogantech 3y agoYou don't employ a team of SRE's with the sole day-job of git maintenance though, your existing SRE/sysadmin team manages it. And any large business will already be doing Backups, DR etc for their existing systems.

- bogantech 3y agoBeen doing it for 20 years so far. If you work in a large business that needs git but doesn't have backups and has no disaster recovery plan at all you're going to have much bigger things to worry about than a git repo being offline.
