The most recent outage data for GitHub is available on this page. We continuously monitor github.com with HTTP probes and AI-powered signal scanning.
How can I monitor GitHub uptime?
WebsiteDown Pro checks github.com every 60 seconds and sends alerts via email, Telegram, or Discord within 1–5 minutes of a detected outage. Free users can check manually anytime.
What does GitHub's response time mean?
Response time measures how long github.com takes to reply to our server-side probe. Under 500ms is good, 500–1000ms is elevated, and over 1000ms suggests degraded performance. Your experience may differ based on your location and ISP.
How does WebsiteDown check GitHub?
We send a direct HTTP HEAD request to github.com from our serverless infrastructure, measuring the response time and HTTP status code. We also scan social networks, Reddit, and news sources for outage signals.
How does a GitHub outage affect my CI/CD pipeline?
If your build or deploy pipeline depends on GitHub, it may stall during an outage. Consider caching dependencies locally and having fallback registries configured.
Can I still push code during a GitHub outage?
Git commits are local, so you can keep working. Pushes and pulls require a connection to github.com. Wait for the outage to resolve before syncing.
