Dearie me, and there we were abandoning sourceforge because it kept crashing, and now github has gone down the plughole too. Scarey. Apparently, according to French tv news, this is part of a mammoth DOS attack on lots of high profile US based sites.
? I’ve been pushing and pulling from GitHub with multiple projects all day—it sure doesn’t seem to be down from here… Elisa

It was down for a few hours today, together with many other sites including
Twitter, Reddit, Spotify, Amazon... etc. This does not compare with the
systemic downfall of Sourceforge, which was perpetrated from the inside.
Nothing to worry about.
