We will be performing some maintenance on the database tonight (Tuesday, July 13, 2010) at 18:00 PST. We will temporarily disable background jobs while this takes place, but all data will still be accessible through the web. Git/SSH access will be unaffected. We expect the migration to take about 10 minutes.
This maintenance should fix some long standing bugs in the way we determine which collaborators and private repos are attached to your account. It should also fix fork-related bugs in Organizations.
Update We had to disable git access – it’ll be back shortly.
Update 2 Git access should be back unless you have a fork. That’ll be back shortly.
Update 3 Everything 100%. Blog post about what screwed up forthcoming.
