I would say your comment (which is currently the top comment on this post) thread is not far off from what cwbrandsma is somewhat hyperbolically saying.
> It always struck me as borderline scummy, since GitHub was of course aware of this, but then again they've knowingly benefited from misconceptions about the Git/GitHub relationship for a long time
To me that very much implies the thought out plan to place github as the defacto git repo that cwbrandsma was describing.
