One of the most known programming tool is built on Ruby, Github.
GitLab also uses Ruby on Rails
And it's a pile of shit.
git is great. GitHub blows chunks. The only reason it's still big is that it sucks less than any other single platform.
@SpaceNoodle I’ll always be sad how GitHub helped popularise centralised workflows. Such an amazing opportunity for a big cultural shift, but it didn’t go anyway as far as it could have.
Git owes a lot of its popularity to github. Without it, there's a good chance that mercurial would have taken over. In addition, the centralized workflow was what made both git and github popular. It simplified git usage enough to let a lot of novices get started.
I'm in no way a fan of centralization that github represents. But I think a decentralized workflow using git was a lost opportunity. People complain a lot about the git-email workflow. But I see no reason why it couldn't have become as easy as using github if the effort spent on github was spent on git-email tools and user experience.
