I wish I could say something smart such as “People/Organisations should host their own git servers“, but as someone who had the misfortune of doing that in the past I rather have a non-functional GitHub.
GitHub: Git operation failures

#52Why are there outages everywhere all the time now? AWS, Azure, GitHub, Cloudflare, etc. Is this the result of "vibe coding"? Because before "vibe coding", I don't remember having this many outages around the clock. Just saying.
They fired a ton of employees with no rhyme or reason to cut costs, this was the predictable outcome. It will get worse if it ever gets better. The funny thing is that the over hiring during the pandemic also had the predictable result of mass lay-offs. Whoever manages HR should be the ones fired after two back to back disasters like this.
And yet we keep paying the company

I think it has more to do with layoffs. "Why do we need so many people to keep things running!?! We never have downtime!!"
Which the true reason for AI, reducing payroll costs.

#54> We are seeing failures for some git http operations and are investigating
It's not just HTTPS, I can't push via SSH either.
I'm not convinced it's just "some" operations either; every single one I've tried fails.

#55What is today and who do I blame for it
Computers are great at solving problems that wouldn’t have existed without computers
Re: GitHub: Git operation failures
#56github has had a few of these as of late, starting to get old
MSFT intentionally degrading operations to get everyone to move onto Azure… oh, wait, they just moved GitHub there, carry on my wayward son!

#57It's not only http, also ssh.
Re: GitHub: Git operation failures
#58Cherry on top will be another aws outage
Funny you should say that, I'm here looking because our monitoring server is seeing 80-90% packet loss on our wireguard from our data center to EC2 Oregon...
Re: GitHub: Git operation failures
#59GitHub is pretty easily the most unreliable service I've used in the past five years. Is GitLab better in this regard? At this point my trust in GitHub is essentially zero - they don't deserve my money any longer.
You can make it as reliable as you want by hosting it on prem.
Re: GitHub: Git operation failures
#60Is it just me or it seems that there is an increased frequency of these types of incidents as of late.
ICE keeps finding immigrants in the server cabinets.
