---------------------------------------- Git June 03rd, 2018 ---------------------------------------- There's some panic in the air over Microsoft courting Github. Alarmists are pulling their projects down, moving to self-hosted Gitlab instances and so on. I'm confused by the whole thing, though. Git isn't github. My repos aren't property of github, even if it's one of the remotes. I have everything up there mirrored in several remote locations. That's the beauty of git! It's distributed. Every repo is the complete repo. orbifx summarized it best over here [0]. (TXT) [0] Decentralised Git This gopher hole is a great example. It's currently located: - on this laptop I'm writing on - on gopher.black (raspberry pi) - on SDF - on Tilde.town - on bitbucket.org - on my macbook air at work - on a backup tower at work - on my PC in a VM in VirtualBox - and probably some other places I forgot about I think the lesson here for people shouldn't be to fear Microsoft nabbing Github. The lesson should be, distribute your shit, people! Use git for awesome.
