Microsoft acquires Github

in news •  6 years ago  (edited)

Well this is going to create a huge stink... I can imagine many people leaving Github because of it. I mean if you're Amazon or Google do you really want your private software repositories in Microsoft's source control system? And if you're a hardcore open-source dev do you really want to be using any source control system controlled by Microsoft who waged war on open source and Linux for years?

Sounds like a great time for decentralized source control to become really decentralized...
