    Hi all - I'm the head of engineering at GitHub. Please accept my sincere apology for this downtime. The cause was a bad deploy (a db migration that changed an index). We were able …

    Most of the services are free. You don't have to use the test service if it is outside of your budget. For instance, you could push your successful builds directly to beta testers,…
