GitHub started adding new good features after being acquired by Microsoft
didn't they like... scrape everyone's open source code for an ai and then gatekeep that shit to their own infra?
Thats kinda hard to prove though
Mixed feelings on this one; I think the jury is still out. I think I preferred GitHub being independent and focused on hosting source code and reviewing merge requests. But... I'm not sure if the product would've ended up any better without being under Microsoft.
Microsoft lately seems to take pretty hands off approaches and follow the "don't fix what isn't broken" rule well, which seems to be working for them.
They still behave like a monopoly. Microsoft owning everything is bad for tech even if they can throw money at it and make it “better.” I moved to codeberg.org and it’s been decent.
Yeah, I don't think anyone's denying that MS is a shitty company; we're just talking about companies that have either improved, or haven't gotten significantly worse, because some other company bought them out.
And now Azure DevOps has completely been forgotten about. I was setting up an web app in Azure and it gave me the option to do continuous integration from GitHub, but not Azure DevOps.
This one hurts. My team at work currently uses AzDO for our build pipeline. It works pretty well, making it easy to trace which build actually got deployed, plus which git branch and commit got built. The variable substitution feature is pretty slick for test vs. prod builds, too.
You can put together continuous integration with Github Actions, but from what I've seen so far, it seems so much more primitive :(
GitHub recently got merge queues. I desperately want something like it for AzDops.
Interesting, sounds like merge queues can streamline some of the housekeeping around PRs. I'll have to read up on them some more.
I wasn't thinking about differences between Github and AzDops repos, only between GH actions and AZ pipelines. My team moved the code to Github a long time ago -- AZ pipelines is perfectly happy having the code there.
Hmm, now I wonder if anyone keeps their code in AZ Repos and their CI stuff in Github Actions (probably not, it sounds absurd!)
