If you understood my comment, you'd know I don't understand the differences between the two that much since I haven't studied them yet. Been clear in a few comments on that. The reason I associate them here is that most projects I see don't just use Git: they use Github, too. So, I briefly wonder and get feedback about how inherent Github-style downtime was or if it was configuration/deployment issues.

Several commenters helpfully described how Git can easily prevent stuff like this and that project-level stuff is why this is a liability. That's good to know as it's already a selling point to management types for a solution like it. Can just ensure the problem doesn't show up in a local deployment by a wiser configuration.

I understood your comment just fine, but the opinion you had formed was based on false assumptions, so I was trying to correct it, that's all.

Personally I try not to form strong opinions about things I haven't actually learned or understood yet.

All good haha
