"Best-in-Class Git Workflow"
What do you like best about GitHub?

Pull request reviews are where GitHub shines for our QA team. I can comment directly on test files when I spot flaky assertions or missing edge cases. Actions runs our Android tests automatically on every PR - no more "works on my machine" excuses. The branch protection rules ensure no one merges without passing tests. Issue tracking links perfectly with our test failures, making bug reproduction straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

Actions sometimes queues forever during peak hours. The mobile app is pretty useless for reviewing code changes. Large test report files hit the size limit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Github - A one stop repository to store and share codes"
What do you like best about GitHub?

Github is extremely user-friendly, making it simple to push code and host websites. For those unfamiliar with Git commands, it offers the convenient option to drag and drop or upload files, which sets it apart from many other software platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

When it comes to hosting webpages created with React, this service does not support them. As a result, I have to look for alternatives such as Netlify. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Assessment of Our Open-Source Software on GitHub"
What do you like best about GitHub?

One of the best things I like about GitHub is how seamlessly it brings collaboration into our coding. Whether we're working with a small team or contributing to a massive open-source project, everything is organized, trackable, and transparent. The version control using Git makes it easy to manage changes without fear of losing progress, and features like pull requests and issues keep communications more productive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

a bit tacky for newcomers, some more new features not always responsive, also for private projects or small teams some features locked in paid tier which limits usage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Best Platform for Code Collaboration and Version Control"
What do you like best about GitHub?

GitHub integrate with most of the IDE's available for developers and has a perfect interface for the need.The pull request process is one of my favorites like the core version control feature, and I love collaborating through code reviews, comments, and simple merging. Having repositories under my control, being able to monitor issues, and automating workflows through GitHub Actions help save time and make code cleaner and more readable.

GitHub has its strongest features in its collaboration capabilities, version control features, and CI/CD integrations. The third-party integrations, markdown documentation, and community engagement make GitHub indispensable.

Setting up Github for new projects is effortless and straightforward even for teams. Creating repositories, forking and cloning are seamless and their documentation and community forums solves the learning curve. I make use of GitHub on a daily basis in my workflow for both team and individual projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

GitHub is strong but has a steep learning curve for its more advanced capabilities such as GitHub Actions or large monorepo handling.

Further customization capabilities would come in handy when handling bigger repositories and projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best platform for version control and collaborative coding"
What do you like best about GitHub?

GitHub makes it simple to manage code with Git, collaborate with teams, and contribute to open-source projects. I like its pull requests, issue tracking, and actions for CI/CD. The integration with editors like VS Code and AI tools like Copilot make it even more powerful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

The interface can feel overwhelming for beginners learning Git concepts. Free private repositories have some limitations compared to paid plans. Also, resolving merge conflicts directly in the web editor can sometimes be tricky. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
