Today I have a deadline. It heats up the emotions.

Okay... so, when is Amazon launching their GitHub alternative?

Oh, they have CodeCommit... good luck with that one though!

We use a self-hosted GitLab ourselves and I can honestly say we have more up time than GitHub. But 9/10 every project we use is on GitHub and our work is stalled. Centralization will be our downfall :(

You may be able to mirror those to your GitLab and then do all your work from the mirror. https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/repository/repositor... Congrats on the self-hosted uptime :)

The nature of our product is to follow 100s of projects. And most of the interesting stuff is actually not in the code but in the issue tracker, release notes etc (for us).

If only there was some kind of distributed version control system. /s

Of course, there is. You just need to host it. Self-hosted GitLab mirrors work great when GitHub is down. https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/repository/repositor...

There's the AWS CodeCommit service but it's for private repositories only

Didn't check the status page but I figured once I had my before bedtime peak at the trending repos.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

it's probably on github

Hopefully does not depend on github webhooks for replication!
