I don't think github is bad tooling (there are worse), but the best thing for developer? I don't see anything on github that is greatly better than what we have in other services.



Github was a huge step up at the time, compared to Sourceforge and Google Code and the like. Git itself helped, since checking out code from Subversion and CVS didn't give you the history, so you'd lose that if you wanted to publish your own fork.


I think git itself is better, personally.


I think the same thing. Before git I was using TFVC and git was huge improvement in pretty much every aspect of code version control.
