The irony here is that GitHub, a centralized service, is built on top of git, a version control system that was designed by Linus Torvalds to be fully decentralized. I can’t read Torvalds mind, but I’m pretty sure that GitHub was not what he had in mind when he was developing git to support Linux kernel development.
