Over the last 7 days, GitHub has answered our automated checks with 100.00% availability and a typical response time of ~357 ms. The most recent outage began 2026-08-03 09:53 UTC and lasted 1h 31m (severity: degraded).

GitHub hosts most of the world's open-source code and the CI, packages, and code review that surround it. Its parts fail independently and that matters in practice: git operations over HTTPS and SSH, the web interface, Actions, the API, and Packages each have their own status, so a push can succeed while Actions queues indefinitely.

What to do if GitHub is down for just you
  • Retry the push or clone once — transient failures are common and git operations are safe to repeat.
  • Check githubstatus.com by component: Actions, Packages, Pages and the API report separately and often fail alone.
  • If pushes fail with auth errors, your personal access token likely expired — tokens are time-limited by default.
  • Try HTTPS instead of SSH (or the reverse) to distinguish a network or key problem from a GitHub problem.
