Well, yeah. It is a good service. They've contributed good stuff to Git core, too.
I really wonder what they do. I have some complicated feelings about them, also, that has to do with them becoming the central hub for open source.
Like, if the product itself were open source, it might be more obvious what they are working on. But I can't demand that kind of transparency... It would just be interesting to know.
With almost 500 employees, what happens? I've never even worked at such a large company myself.
Should GitHub users have some say in what the company builds? I mean, we're promoting them like hell, and the social network is a huge part of their value.
I often wonder what well-funded large product companies do with all their manpower. Feature development doesn't seem to scale. Nor innovative design. GitHub's mobile layout is pretty crippled. I dunno. Just curious.
Is there anyway to search bitbucket? Can I link my profile to someone so they can see all my projects? I'm only dimly aware of bitbucket, but if these criteria are easily met then I might even consider changing over.
i don't use bitbucket so can't comment if they provide this. but github has a nice hack allowing you to svn checkout a portion of a tree
on a slow connection, this allows you to work on or inspect repos that are too large to git clone (one of the few major complaints i have with git itself)
Well maintaining software and infrastructure is one thing. But they also seem to lack features compared to the competition. They might want to quickly sort their management issues out and be more agressive feature-wise.
