When did people start using github for... no reason other than keeping track of random information?

I've seen it used more and more for anything that people want to contribute to. People have even suggested it for legislation.

I have a repo called random. All it is, is random information. I have some hidden ones that are more random, such as pictures.  :)

Very random: https://github.com/metulburr/random/blob...urllib.py~

Isn't git supposed to be bad for binary data?

That's cool.  It's like you're using it as a backup.  The cheatsheet thing just seems... weird lol

It seems to work quite well as a free drop box :shh:. I dont go crazy like stuffing numerous repos to the max. I often throw up an exe or iamges with my programs.

I once used it to throw up RAW images to pass them to someone else...just because facebook degrades them. The only reason i probably do not get banned, is because the majority of my stuff on there is code.

Hmm... As I read I am thinking that you never heard about https://mega.nz/, https://www.mediafire.com/ or similar

I hate media fire and the likes. Another account to login to when github does the same thing. I like to be able to just use git/terminal to upload my files (i am not sure if you can with mediafire?). There are a lot of them that also have spammy advertisements that are annoying. There is that bumblebee (or beestorage) or whatever its called :doh: ...you have to click in the top right to skip ads everytime. Github doesnt have any of that. 

Also with drop box and media fire you are limited in 50GB (wow thats quite a lot for free)  or something around there (for free). Github limits you to 1 GB per repo, but unlimited repos. (last time i checked) As long as a sinlge file is no larger than 100MB and you can split your stuff up in repos of 1GB, its OK. Ive rarely had that as a problem, and use drop box in those cases.

And i hear media fire deletes accounts with copyright infringment. Not going into too much here  :D

Actually if I remember there is some API for mega.nz. Even Pythonish one. :D
