GitHub is officially live. Thanks for the awesome beta everyone.
While you can sign up or upgrade your account now, it’ll be one week (April 17th) before we start enforcing limits. Think of this as a trial period.
We’re really proud of the site and have so many ideas for the future – this is just the beginning. While we’ve come a long way since going into beta, rather than pontificate on the journey I’ll just let our happy users speak for themselves.
Update: Oh yeah, new features: comments on commits, network graphs (check the blog post), and Campfire & Lighthouse integration.
