The popular GitHub website suffered a minor service outage on March 26 due to a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack. At the moment, the website appears to work properly on our end, but some users still report intermittent connectivity with Git operations.
It appears that the attack started at 1:55 UTC (Coordinated Universal Time), when GitHub maintainers reported minor service outage, while trying to identify and mitigate the DoS attack that affected its service. On March 27, at 6:29 UTC, the DDoS attack was amplified again, but one hours later all GitHub services were restored to normal.
