GitHub has actions etc. a lot of people don’t build locally. They push to GitHub and it builds, tests, deployed, does checks etc
You should be able to replicate at least some of that locally. If you can't work with GitHub down for a couple of hours, then it's a poorly set up project.
Tell me you don't actually code enterprise without telling me you don't actually code enterprise.
Nah. If your entire dev team has to be on pause when github is down, you're doing it wrong. Especially enterprise.
Sorry but that is just the reality these days. Instead of having local «it works on my computer» setups you have one place that builds
Off code you could run your own gitlab or whatever but it’s just cheaper and more efficient to buy a sass solution
You should have both. Having your entire dev team unable to work when one service is down is absurd.
Welcome to the world of SaaS I guess? It’s very standard. I mean GitHub used to have better uptime than you could achieve on your own.
It's not cheaper if nobody can work for hours.
Captain hindsight over here
You can still make a CI/CD pipeline that doesn't self combust every 5 minutes lol.
