Comments here are mostly from a single org view, due to the many X increase for that orgs price (large teams only)... but if I work on n_orgs repos, I'm now worth 9-25*n_orgs to github. That is a big shift from a model where I had no direct value to them as a unit.

In a non-profit that I collaborate with [1] we use private repos to keep the server setup and some tickets that contain sensitive information (user data). All other code is open source. Obviously we don't want to keep api keys etc. in the public repos. [1] https://github.com/sozialhelden/wheelmap
Fix your security.

> GitHub seems cheap to me At $9/user/mo, github is 900% more expensive than the $1/user/mo direct competitor BitBucket. BitBucket uses brackets rather than pure scaling, but their most expensive option - 101 users require the $200 unlimited accounts plan - is still only $2/user.
If $8 is a big deal per user, how little are you paying the poor bastards?
I personally like the new pricing, but as a non-paying user of GitHub and BitBucket... I'll stick to BitBucket for my private repos :) I guess they don't give a damn as I'm still not paying either :)

You're very welcome to switch to GitLab.com, we are free forever https://about.gitlab.com/gitlab-com/#why-gitlab-com-will-be-... and it can import directly from GitHub.
GitLab CE (Community Edition is Free) and is truly great we use it in our own internal software development process. However for a bigger enterprise they require more functionality here is a comparison of the differences between the Community and Enterprise Editions. https://about.gitlab.com/features/#compare Several pricing options for EE but essentially the base cost is $39 /year per user. https://about.gitlab.com/…
Re: Introducing unlimited private repositories
#476Have been using Github for a community radio station, have been encouraging all staffers to use github accounts to file issues against our private repos, etc. The friendly policies for many collaborators have made this attractive, even though most users have rarely interacted with the repos, if at all. Now each user for the private repo has a significant cost (pretty significant for a non-profit community radio stati…

#477One downside of this change is if you have a private Github org, you are now incentivized not to add advisors/randoms to your org/repos. I wonder how much scurrying Github sees to remove errant users from orgs.

#480A small comparison: Team | Cost Before | Cost Now 1 repo, 5 users | $25 | $25 1 repo, 10 users | $25 | $70 11 repos, 5 users | $50 | $25 11 repos, 10 users | $50 | $70 5 repos, 50 users | $25 | $430 50 repos, 5 users | $100 | $25 50 repos, 50 users | $100 | $430 I'm not sure how common are organizations with few users and large number of repose - I guess software houses that keep old projects (for maintenance and fut…
For a 50 person group, $430 is peanuts, it's just peanuts. I'm sorry, I just don't feel for these people, this is getting upset about the $0.10 charge for butter when you paid $10.00 for the popcorn.
