I'm extremely happy at GitHub's success. It's one of my favorite sites. But it seems a bit strange to count gists as projects. I use them like I used to use pastebin.



I completely agree Github is excellent but this is blown a bit out of proportion.

The Linux kernel and Git projects on Github linked in the article are both just mirror projects for projects hosted elsewhere.


What difference does it make, it's not like 1 Million is anything other than a number anyway. The point is that Github has grown a lot and 1M is just a convenient time to share some love.


I know the Github guys pretty well, and I'm glad their project is doing well.

I guess I'm pointing out it's bad journalism.
