There's plenty of git forges that aren't GitHub. Git itself has nothing to do with central servers and can theoretically be used in a completely decentralized manner.
At college some guys were self hosting a git server for a project but it went down. We resorted to a USB stick that acted as
remote
and was passed around. That was awesome to see, for about a day...Lol. Git itself can act as a server over the git protocol. Might have been easier 🤪
Understood.
Thanks big bro.
Yeah, I'd recommend so. Otherwise, it might look like you don't know the difference between Git and GitHub, which a software developer should.
