I don't have strong feelings about a plastic bag ban, but the one thing that sort of surprised me after living in San Francisco the last few years is that I take far fewer plastic bags when I have a small number of items. I'll jus

FI was JRuby; as part of the naming switchover and product overhaul to the first release of GitHub Enterprise, we switched it over to MRI in late 2011.

I like to pride myself on never having used a clumsy phrase like that. That said, machine users were en vogue at GitHub, although maybe that's changing with more consideration being given to deploy keys nowadays.

I never heard anyone gripe about it... not even once. The cost is pretty negligible, and there's a lot of halo benefit (i.e., you just get more people involved on GitHub the platform itself). The fact that a lot of non-technical employ

I've been thinking about this a lot recently. You wouldn't believe the number of people (VCs, marketers, recruiters, etc.) who strongly have pushed for a similar system implemented in GitHub over the years. The entire concept of o

Just messing with you. :) Your assumption is wrong.

> GitHub makes nearly ALL of their revenue from GitHub Enterprise, there is not enough money in their standard monthly plans. Whoa, didn't expect that at all. Super interesting. Do you have a source for that?

I'll give it a shot: > Buzz Lightyear walks into a bar called the "Uncanny Valley" and asks the bartender for a vodka soda. The bartender gives him a vasectomy. Voice recognition is important!

Actually caught this last night and fixed it literally everywhere but the important place: this image. :) Fixed! Thanks for pointing it out.

It doesn't. The author goes on a long, ambiguous tirade about Skittles™ and how they aren't as aerodynamic as once initially thought. You did good by refusing to read the rest of the post and informing everyone of that fact on Hac

Yup; one monolithic app. Tests run in a tad over two minutes.

We already have the app booting on 3.2; the goal is to try to get to 4.0 and track master fairly quickly. No one's eager to have to go through this whole process again in a year. ;)

Lots of conditionals, yeah. This isn't really a bad thing, to be honest; it's far better than maintaining two separate branches. We already use similar conditionals when dealing with feature flags, so it's not really somethin

Related: `no:label` will show you everything that's not labeled in your repository, too.

@steveklabnik (since hn won't let us nest further): why not just hit the subscribe button on the right?

by holman 12y ago
Yeah; that's a pretty limited interaction (compared to comments) so it wasn't a huge focus yet. I'll have a fix patched up and deployed in the next hour or so, though. (Edit: fix is deployed.)

Definitely not (the beta's been great!). We've been discussing this ad nauseam for years and years, with some good points on both sides. We were looking to make it a partially open, paid app when we launched the beta, but after co

Love things like this. Here's a screenshot expanded version of our staff bar on GitHub.com: http://cl.ly/image/0O0N183x2F44 Most of those numbers are clickable. The graphs button on the left links to a flame graph

As mentioned, these are cribbed from my Git & GitHub Secrets talk: http://zachholman.com/talk/git-github-secrets/ If you're interested in the arcane side of Git and GitHub, you might also be interested in

GitHub was not involved in removing the repository.

by holman 13y ago
Nope. We'd be open to, but there's not too much motivation to do so at the moment, to be honest. Just one of those things where most people are focused on other areas of the company right now.

Not quite (we've been meaning to ship this for awhile now), but we were definitely delighted by the timing of your comment. :)

We keep a styleguide (which is actually public: https://github.com/styleguide ) that we loosely use across many products and apps. Beyond that, we have two libraries (one CSS, one JavaScript) that we pull into projects that
