Is GitHub experiencing a global outage?
Our probe checks github.com from a single serverless region. If the service is up in our check but down for you, the issue may be regional — related to your ISP, local DNS, or geographic routing.
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.
