Hello, everyone. As you may have seen on the main page of ga-students
, General Assembly is moving from GitHub.com to a private GitHub Enterprise cloud, and as part of that move, we will be totally shutting down the ga-students
GitHub organization on May 21 at midnight UTC.
What does "shutting down" mean? It means that all repositories in the ga-students
organization will be deleted off of GitHub.com, and as a result, any forks of private repos from ga-students
will automatically disappear.
The repos on ga-students
will not be totally gone -- they're being migrated to GA's private servers -- but should any issues arise with our migration process, we would hate for any of you to lose access to your course materials.
For this reason, we strongly suggest that each user of ga-students
clone/download materials that they'd like to preserve to their local machines before 5/21. Instructions on how to clone or download a repository can be found here. However, if you no longer wish to retain access to those materials, no action is needed.
If you are part of a cohort that is currently in session, your instructional team will be in touch soon with details about how your class will be affected by the migration.
Thank you all for your patience as we approach this big move! If you have any specific questions, please email me at [email protected]
