Github is barely at $200M in revenue and requires a lot of moving pieces to make that happen - something that just doesnt make sense for the scale of Google. It's not really a great business opportunity.

However, Google Cloud Platform does have private repositories that can also be used in their CI/CD solution.

Fair point. Sometimes Google abandons something not because of institutional dysfuntionality - but simply because they are aiming much much bigger.

Shame if you happen to live in the path of the juggernaut however...


That is a small revenue considering the impact they have on the world.

I wonder how they might better monetize without becoming obnoxious?
