GitHub is a cloud-based service.
It is a website service that helps developers manage and store their codes.
The developers can also control and track modifications to their codes.
Version Control Version control helps web developers to manage and track changes to the code of their software project.
It was developed by Linus Torvalds in the year 2005.
The open-source distributed system of version control allows for easy merging and branching.
Popular software website hosting and collaboration platform GitHub has made a number of its middle top class capabilities unfastened for everybody.
The Microsoft-owned employer stated the day past that an business enterprise can now make personal repositories for improvement without paying any fees.
Up until now, if a company wanted to host its private development on GitHub, it had to enroll in one of the top class plans beginning from $7 a month.
Last yr, the company made non-public repositories to be had for the unfastened tier, users but with regulations including the wide variety of collaborators.Apart from personal repository get admission to, a team also can get 2,000 GitHub movement mins in step with month at no cost.
Actions is GitHub’s automation tool imparting which shall we applications orchestrate any workflow primarily based on an occasion — like sending a notification.
So, the free tier supplying is ideal for small-scale tasks.If you want a few advanced features, inclusive of code proprietors to have higher manipulate of the assignment, you’ll want to pay $4 instead of $nine for teams.In an Q session hosted on Hacker News, CEO Nat Friedman stated GitHub desired to roll out this alteration for the last 18 months:  We’ve desired to make this variation for the closing 18 months, but needed our Enterprise commercial enterprise to be massive sufficient to enable the free use of GitHub via the relaxation of the sector.
We are delighted to announce that starting today Orangescrum provides two-way integration with GitHub.
With this release, you can create, collaborate and manage all your GitHub issues directly from Orangescrum or Github instantly.
This integration is fruitful for the IT and product development teams who use Github to share or collaborate code and monitor code issues.
Most developers, IT teams and agencies use GitHub to organize, release and track issues on their code. If an issue is raised for your code, you will get an instant notification from Orangecrum and the issue will be created as a task for you in Orangescrum.
We make your task and issue management easier by bringing them together on a single platform of your choice.
GitHub or Orangescrum you are always on top of your tasks and issues so that you focus on delivering quality products for your customers.
With GitHub integration, you can sync the following data:-
- Task Title
- Task Description
- Comments
- Task Status
Currently, tasks type, labels, file attachments, sub-tasks, assigned to details are not being synced. However, we are working on this.
If a task is in New, In-progress or Resolve status in Orangescrum, in GitHub, the task will be assigned to Open status. For closed tasks in Orangescrum, GitHub assigns status as Closed.
If a task that is Open in GitHub, it will be default assigned as status New in Orangescrum.
Microsoft's social code biz GitHub on Thursday said its automation system, GitHub Actions, will now play real nice with third-party continuous integration and continuous deployment tools, a duo better known among IT types by its stage name, CI/CD.
Actions emerged in beta in October, and is slated for general availability on November 13 this year.
It is free for public GitHub repos, though it subject to certain usage limits and prohibitions on serverless computing, cryptomining, and other undesirable behavior spelled out under GitHub's Terms of Service and Community Guidelines.
"GitHub Actions can plug into any part of the software lifecycle and integrates with many CI/CD tools developers use today," said Max Schoening, senior director of product design at GitHub, in an email to The Register.
"GitHub Actions helps you build, test, and deploy applications, but you can also use it to automate other tasks common to your developer workflows: triaging and managing issues, automating releases, collaborating with your user base, and more," said GitHub CEO Nat Friedman in a blog post.
We should point out that Actions enables a broader spectrum of automation tasks than CI/CD, which generally is used to automate code compilation, validation, testing, building, and deployment.
Microsoft’s GitHub today launched the beta of a new version of GitHub Actions with full continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) capabilities built right into the service.
General availability is planned for November 13.
The company also today announced that it now has more than 40 million developers on its platform.
Still, developers were obviously quite interested in using Actions for CI/CD.
“Since we introduced GitHub Actions last year, the response has been phenomenal, and developers have created thousands of inspired workflows,” writes GitHub CEO Nat Friedman in today’s announcement.
“But we’ve also heard clear feedback from almost everyone: you want CI/CD!
Microsoft’s GitHub Actions for workflow automation from the beginning of an idea to production got an upgrade today that brings CI/CD to teams building and sharing code.
Continuous integration and continuous delivery or CI/CD is a way for developers working on the same project to merge and integrate changes into a code base without conflict.
GitHub also announced today its code repository is now used by 40 million developers worldwide, up from 31 million in fall 2018 and 24 million in 2017.
The latest version of GitHub Actions in beta extends support to programming languages and frameworks like C/C++, Ruby, PHP, and Python.
GitHub first introduced Actions in developer beta at GitHub Universe in fall 2018 with support for Java and .NET projects.
“The way that the initial launch for Actions worked was anything that you can basically run on Linux in a container was supported, OK?
