For example I used to contract at a place where the head of IT was a guy that came up from punchcards. He knew his stuff about managing things like service desks etc, but he didn't know about newer stuff and was reluctant to sign off on it (quite understandably) unless there was an official consultant round from a vendor. So the trick with him was "Well the official documentation from <insert software vendor> recommends".

Making carte blanche statements like "You should be doing" while you might be correct in a broader sense, sometimes just improving stuff a little bit can help loads.

TL;DR; rome wasn't built in a day and sometimes it is better to ease people into it

I never stated that, I said "should" not "must".

@Deleted User I know, I was just explaining my reasoning to you.

I'm really upset about GitHub being acquired by Microsoft

I'm not a CopyLeft guy, however I do back them in this case, as GitHub was this great platform to share open code projects

I think GitHub shat on everyone with that buyout.

Microsoft is the worst company to run a open source community.

I bet freenode is on fire right now

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I never liked GitHub

I personally found GitHub useful.

Jenkins, GitLab, and other build or code-repository services lacked in proper design.

I will say GitHub is a well-done and well-established service and community.

Their business model strongly encouraged open-sourcing projects. Microsoft buying this sends a strong message that this will no longer be a priority.

I never cared to have my stuff open source. I keep all my stuff on a private fileserver I host at home.

It's not even like a website costs that much

The projects I work on are paid accounts on GitHub who keep their code closed.

There are also open-source clones for GitHub that can be privately hosted.

Git on command

it's not hard

I will never use mercurial or subversion ever again

It's not like it's going away either, and has Microsoft even stated their plan for it? They might just want the profit and might not change it.

It's definitely a PR stunt
