GitHub status history
Current state: operational — “All Systems Operational” per https://www.githubstatus.com (Atlassian Statuspage), checked 2026-09-16 12:28 UTC.
How long do GitHub incidents last?
From 56 incidents with a vendor-posted start and resolve time. Longest on record: Disruption with GitHub Billing — 20.1 h (2026-08-26 23:37 UTC). Excluded, never estimated: 1 still open / no resolve time. Duration is the gap between the vendor's own posted timestamps — it is not measured downtime, uptime or an SLA figure, and a vendor that posts every blip will look worse here than one that posts nothing. Same rule as the outage-duration dataset.
