You can have multiple remotes for your Git repositories, one of them (Github) being down should not affect your work since you can coordinate a new one with your team in the manner described above.

Yep! I usually setup a mirror at bitbucket and set my local to push to both github and bitbucket and only pull from github. It worked well when github was down and I needed a branch from a remote developer.

Nice. I didn't know you could push to multiple remotes (in the same command). Could you give me an example? Thanks!

The reply right under mine seems to be a reply to you. It has a stackoverflow link that shows you how to setup two URLs in your origin remote.
