/enqueue jokes about decentralized DVCS systems being hosted centrally...

Srsly tho, the relationship between Git and GitHub, might be somewhat analogous to that of BitTorrent and TPB

Fortunately since you have an entire copy of the repository it doesn't really matter. Your team can just push the latest copy to another remote like Bitbucket and start using that.

Well, except for Issues, Pull Requests, Wiki, etc, but those aren't part of Git.

I call it recentralized.

It's both a joke and educational: I didn't know they were down until I caught up on my RSS feeds last night
