Microsoft has completed its acquisition of GitHub. Nat Friedman, former CEO of Xamarin (acquired by Microsoft in 2016), is taking over as GitHub’s CEO, reporting to Scott Guthrie, Microsoft Cloud + AI Group Executive Vice President.

GitHub will retain its developer-first ethos, operate independently, and remain an open platform. Together, the two companies will work together to empower developers to achieve more at every stage of the development lifecycle, accelerate enterprise use of GitHub, and bring Microsoft’s developer tools and services to new audiences.

For more on what this means for GitHub and its community of developers, read new CEO Nat Friedman’s blog.

This is probably going to crash and burn like Skype or how Google took over YouTube.

That's why the author of a PHP script I use has Bitbucket and Sourceforge as a backup just in case.
