Lovely news in case you didn’t read it yet!
Tell me when they push repo limit to 10Gb
If a project is not open source does it fit into the Free/Private Repo category now?
Is the repo size larger than vs.com? Repo size is really important for game Dev purpose.
Github’s base repo size is 1 GB.

If you need more than that you need to purchase data packs.

Each data pack is $5/mo for 50 GB of bandwidth and 50 GB of storage.
Yes, and that’s why other than very minor projects I wouldn’t bother with Github. It’s simply far too restrictive.

I think their bandwidth rates are so high to actively discourage binary media on their platform. The real cost of bandwidth when buying at scale is around $0.005 per GB. Average markup is around 10x to 15x for cloud hosting, but you can get it for around 2x cost if you shop around.
Github pricing is just so ridiculous, it seems they must have ulterior motives for doing that.
