GitHub is mainly used for code control. We have three environments, and we keep their codes as per those environments. As and when required, we clear pull requests as well. The main purpose of GitHub is to keep our code available.

GitHub is essentially a repository of code. It's where you source your code with the client and allows you to use Git. You get versioning and everything else for multiple deployments or codes. That's how we use it.

GitHub is an excellent platform for organizing all sorts of information. I personally found it beneficial for keeping track of my coding projects, and recommendations, and occasionally making commits. By creating branches, I could easily focus on specific areas and even delve into things like creating my website using GitHub pages. Overall, I found these features to be very practical and advantageous.

We use GitHub for code versioning; with multiple developers working on the same projects. It gives us a central source for our code. We commit our code to the cloud using the API called Gita, which tracks which developers have uploaded the code, which have changed it and so on.

It's mostly for versioning only, maintaining code branches, and sharing the code across to the wider community. It depends if it's a private one or a public one. It's mostly for collaboration across people.

It's a code repository, so it is used for checking it, code, and version control. This solution is deployed on the cloud. There are 10-15 people using this solution in my organization.

GitHub is used to manage distributed versions of systems to allow developers using production operating systems to work without distributed dependency. It is a distributed version control system where we get the repository downloaded on our laptops and can work without any idle time.

We are an IT service company that specializes in DevOps, and we use many tools for application lifecycle management, such as GitHub, GitLab, SonarCloud, SonarQube, Docker, Kubernetes, and Azure DevOps. We mainly use this solution for storing the code of our applications and our scripts. We also use it for our automated functional testing and for building applications and releasing applications. It is also used to manage our team and our product, as well as to check the security of our product. We are a partner and reseller, and we use GitHub Cloud.

We use GitHub because we don't have any paid solutions, and GitHub is freeware. It's open to all, and there aren't big licensing fees, like with Jira or any other tool. Apart from that, because it's totally cloud based, we don't need any extensions, and our developers and DevOps are all in sync and are able to get help with their second branches. So, we are all using the same platform to manage our product. It's a cloud solution.

We use the solution to handle our switch control. All our first code force is managed by GitHub to commit new features and create different branches. We even use this to manage the code to handle flows and processes. We can use it to create some branches and manage the code ownership, and we have an account for each developer so that they can submit pieces to code review for the user.

My primary use case for GitHub is for my private projects that I'm developing for my customers. Some customers have their own developers and I sometimes support them to achieve their goals. So we share everything. We're also using GitHub for the documentation for the teams. I also give lectures for the organizations because sometimes they have development teams but they are not qualified enough, so I have to give them some training on it.

Some of the people in my team use this solution for version control of personal projects.

GitHub is a web-based Git repository hosting service. It offers all of the distributed revision control and source code management (SCM) functionality of Git as well as adding its own features. Unlike Git, which is strictly a command-line tool, GitHub provides a Web-based graphical interface and desktop as well as mobile integration. It also provides access control and several collaboration features such as bug tracking, feature requests, task management, and wikis for every project.
