I have no idea about whether the valuation is sane, but combining a powerful, intuitive tool (GH Enterprise) w/MS's sales channel is likely to drive a lot of new revenue. Lots of companies stick with IBM's revision control products because companies like Github might not be taken seriously by decision makers.
