This market will resolve to “Yes” if GitHub's Git Operations service experiences an incident with an impact classified as “critical” between market creation and the listed date, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No.” An incident will qualify if the official GitHub Status Page (githubstatus.com) or the official GitHub Status API (githubstatus.com/api) classifies the incident's impact as “critical” and lists Git Operations among the incident's affected components ones the incident is marked “Resolved”. GitHub classifies incident impact as None, Minor, Major, or Critical; only an impact of Critical will qualify. Component status labels (e.g. “Degraded Performance,” “Partial Outage,” or “Major Outage”) will have no bearing on this market absent a qualifying critical incident. Revisions published after an incident is marked “Resolved” will not be considered. If an incident that began before 11:59 PM ET on the listed date remains unresolved at that time, this market will remain open and resolve at the earlier of: (i) when the incident is officially resolved, or (ii) the end of the seventh calendar day (ET) after the listed date, at which point the market will resolve based on the official information available at that time. Incidents that do not list Git Operations among their affected components, including incidents that list no affected components, will not qualify. Scheduled maintenance will not qualify. The primary resolution source for this market will be official GitHub system-status information published at https://www.githubstatus.com/, including the official GitHub Status API (https://www.githubstatus.com/api); however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.GitHub's Git Operations service has faced repeated disruptions in 2025–2026, including 19 incidents affecting push, pull, and clone operations, with peaks in February and a major multi-hour outage on July 8 that degraded performance across Git features alongside Actions, API, and Copilot. Recent infrastructure changes at underlying providers, resource exhaustion, and cascading failures from high usage have driven these events, as detailed in GitHub's own availability reports. Trader sentiment reflects ongoing reliability concerns amid platform growth, with the August 17, 2026 outage reinforcing patterns of intermittent errors. Key upcoming catalysts include any Microsoft announcements on backend upgrades or monitoring improvements ahead of potential resolution dates, while the status page remains the primary real-time signal for market shifts.
