In real life, I very often have to correct people who conflate git and github. Github was very successful in hijacking git. That's a big achievement, but having one big player is not healthy for the ecosystem and its inhabitants. The network effect is the big enabler here. GitHub, just like Facebook, Windows, and more recently WhatsApp, grew because people felt they could not avoid it. (I left out political examples ;-) Cheers, Jos _______________________________________________ kde-community mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-community
