Why is GitHub not working for me?

We're not detecting a broad GitHub outage right now, so a problem is most likely local to you — your internet connection, device, or the app. Try restarting the app, then your router. If many people report the same issue, this page will update to show it.

When was the last GitHub outage?

The last recorded GitHub incident was earlier today.

How do I report a GitHub problem?

Use the “Report a problem” button on this page and choose what's not working. Reports are anonymous and update the live status and outage map in real time.

How does Outage.Report know if GitHub is down?

We aggregate anonymous user reports and monitor public social-media posts, comparing live volume against GitHub's normal baseline for the time of day and region to detect anomalies — often before they're officially confirmed.
