GitHub Outage Inspires Durable Objects-based Git Forge
tobowers · x · 2026-08-19
Following a 3-day GitHub Actions outage, a new Git hosting solution based on Cloudflare Durable Objects has emerged. The project implements a Git forge where each repository is a single Durable Object holding packfiles and refs, speaking the Git smart HTTP protocol. It requires no origin server or filesystem, with zero cost for idle repos. The post also highlights 'celld', a self-hosted, distributed runtime for Durable Objects that claims orders of magnitude cheaper costs at scale compared to the official offering.
