       @neauoireIt's sad, really. GH had a few really great years. It's too bad it won't have a dignified death.@drisc

       @hecanjogThe difference is they are using custom GH commandline tools by default to do simple git tasks like cloning. There doesn't seem to be any mention of "git" anymore. I think it crosses a line.@neauoire @drisc

       @hecanjog ah good point. I stand corrected.Hopefully they'll keep the git instructions up by default when you make a new repo.@neauoire @drisc

       @drisc now you can use Repo 365℠ from CMD.EXE with Microsoft™ Plus Pack® for Visual Studio!...just as soon as Azure App Service comes back online.  We're investigating the outage but not hard enough to refund your subscription.

       @paul @hecanjog @neauoire @drisc Regardless of which instructions they keep and don't, there seems to be a trend of confounding git with Github. I've encountered that a few times now, e.g. a professional dev will say they use Github for version control, or tutorials for beginners will suggest you use a version control system, like Github.Microsoft's got too much in its plate, again.

       Just looked at some projects on Github and saw that the site no longer advertises a standard git command to copy for repo cloning. Now they encourage the use of 'Github CLI' with the syntax of 'gh repo clone'.No doubt it's a wrapper around git that will slowly gain features that git won't add because there is no need for them.They are no longer a 'git hub', they are a 'repo space'.All leading to the classic, Embrace, Extend, Extinguish.

       I haven't pushed any stuff there for a while because I'm terrible at version control but I'm very glad I jumped to @sir's sourcehut, the direction the Github is moving in now feels creepy to me.
