How GitHub Uses GitHub to Build GitHub

http://zachholman.com/talk/how-github-uses-github-to-build-github

Everyone can push, everyone can deploy 

Master is always deployable

Deploy 10 to 40 times a day

Pull requests are our code review

Master -> Branch -> Pull request -> Master

Pull requests are RAD no meeting, email is your interface, non techs get involved

Culture...   Hack days... make things fun... 

Hubot, our valiant Campfire bot, has continued to grow in complexity. A tiny list of his (current) capabilities:

-unlock the door to our office

-print out a list of the people currently in the office based on their wifi presence

-find an apartment in the area to rent

-deploy GitHub

-say an arbitrary string over the office speakers

-play an audio sample of deadmau5 to everyone through hacked Propane HTML5

-give you a quote from any movie or TV show

-tell you the build status of any git branch

-track and map packages

-SMS any GitHubber from Campfire

-embed a seven day weather forecast
