GitHub to offer unlimited private repositories for free 🔥 ↦
In a post accidentally published a day early, we learn that GitHub will offer unlimited private repositories for free to users, effectively eliminating their smallest personal plan. However, the private repositories are limited to three collaborators. The article suggests the feature will roll out on January 8th. It will be interesting to see how the current pay subscriptions will change.

Looks like GitHub has made it official a day earlier than planned, possibly due to The Next Web accidentally breaking embargo…

I’m so excited about this! I could probably downgrade my plan to free. But, I think this is truly exciting for newcomers and those who can’t afford to pay for GitHub. This is the type of stuff that corporate backing makes possible; opening the doors to excellent version control to an even bigger group of people.
