In April, we experienced 10 incidents that resulted in degraded performance across GitHub services.
To increase transparency, at the end of April, we released a blog post covering major incidents on April 23 and April 27. We have also taken steps to bring more detail to the GitHub status page.
Thank you for your patience as we work through near-term and long-term investments we’re making.

On April 1, 2026, between 14:40 and 17:00 UTC, GitHub’s code search service was fully unavailable; 100% of search queries failed. Service was restored in a degraded state by 17:00 UTC with temporarily stale results, and fully recovered with current data by 23:45 UTC.
