I think some of those features on github might incurr a cost. I'm sure we have more than 500 mb of code. You could also consider this free openbuild servce https://build.opensuse.org/ The etherlab guys use it to build debs as per the sticky I put in our ethercat forum. They have a connector from github called osc. I tried running it recently but it uses a Python lib which was deprecated in Python 9. I don't think the users will be impacted if the end result gets hosted on http://linuxcnc.org/dists/ as part of the build process.
