About GitHub

GitHub is where the world's code lives. Owned by Microsoft, it hosts repositories for individual developers, open source projects and most large engineering teams, and it is also where code review and automated builds happen through pull requests and Actions.

For Indian software teams, and for the very large number of students learning to code here, it doubles as a portfolio that employers actually look at.

When it has trouble, work stops in a specific way, pushes and pulls fail and deployment pipelines stall, across many companies at once.

If GitHub isn't working

Check the official GitHub status page GitHub publishes a status page that lists which components (Actions, API, Pages, Git operations) are affected. Check it first to know if it is GitHub or you.
Check which component is down An incident may hit only Actions or only the API while push and pull work. Knowing the affected component tells you what to wait on.
Rule out your credentials and network If the status page is green, check your token, SSH key and connection before assuming an outage.
Retry after a short wait For transient failures, retry the push, pull or workflow after a short wait rather than repeatedly.
Check the live status above If many people are reporting GitHub right now, it is a wider outage and not just you.

Other ways to access GitHub

Follow the official status page GitHub's status page and status social handle post live updates on the incident and the affected components.
Work locally and push later Git is distributed, so you can keep committing locally and push once GitHub is back.
Use another remote temporarily For an urgent share, pushing to another Git remote or mirror can be a short-term workaround.
Wait out a platform incident If it is confirmed on GitHub's side, only their fix resolves it, so watch the status page for the all-clear.

Questions

Check the live status and report map above, and GitHub's own status page. If reports are spiking, it is a wider GitHub problem and not just you.

When GitHub has an incident, Git operations like push and pull, or Actions and CI builds, can fail or hang even if the website loads. It is usually on GitHub's side and clears once the incident is resolved.

GitHub incidents are often scoped to one component, such as Actions, Pages, the API or Git operations, while the rest works. The status page shows exactly which parts are affected.

If the status page shows an incident and many people are reporting it here, it is on GitHub's side. If not, check your internet, your token or SSH key, and try again.

Pehle upar live status aur GitHub ka status page dekhein. Agar incident chal raha hai to push, pull ya Actions fail ho sakte hain. Thodi der baad try karein, aur apna token ya SSH key bhi check karein.

Yes. Tap the Download button on the live status card at the top of this page to save the GitHub server down image. The screenshot shows GitHub's current status, the last checked time and how many users across India are reporting problems right now. So when GitHub is actually down you get a real service down screenshot, not a mock-up. Save the service down image to keep it or send it to someone.

We run an on-demand server check from our side and combine it with real user reports across India. Reports are the main signal, because GitHub can respond to our check while it is still failing for many users. So if reports are spiking here, it is a real problem even if the site loads for us.
