GitHub seems to be experiencing technical difficulties

"We're working to mitigate a DDoS attack affecting http://github.com performance."

It seems to be back up now—but the repo I was working on has reverted to its state 17 hours ago.

Edit: never mind, it's back.

It's a DDoS apparently.

I think the post title now reflects the situation better.

That was quick, I was about to post it. Hopefully everything isn't on fire over at Github.

Last time it was a power outage of some sort right? What's it going to be this time?
