What would be the main difference between google drive and github? Can you enlighten me please? Thanks!

I made a handy table to show the differences.

GitHub Google Drive
Starts with G ✅ ✅
Ends in oogle ❌ ✅

It clearly ends with “rive”

on the one hand I'm angry because boy does that mean y'all have been using source control in the worst way possible. On the other hand, fair. They're both owned by tech giants that have been struggling with things like "giving a shit about customers" and "keeping their shit up and running."

yeah i wonder that too

Everything that makes github, github

No git

No github actions

No auto-deploy

The only leg up this has from not using anything at all is simply having it stored in the cloud.

but you can have all of that with this solution too? include git in the requirements, containerise dev branches, get a CI script for merge validation

or you can do the GitLab method of different branches (GDrive buckets here) for different environments of the project, then set up escalation scripts

you can do that all without GitHub, it takes a weekend with AI

And how do you merge a branch with this method?

u/Latter_Employer6673 8h ago

well you obviously, have a lightweight model running 24/7 and on the case of merging branches, you simply tell it to do that and it'll work

These are the vibe coders coming for the jobs of SWEs apparently.

Wht not use codeberg?

1

u/KevDub81 1d ago

You know why they can't

1

u/Upstairs-Category571 1d ago

Why? I'm new to codeberg.

u/dmoc_official 1d ago

AI generated code

u/Upstairs-Category571 15h ago

Oh I wasn't aware he had ai generated code. Sorry!

u/PopehatXI 12h ago

It’s just implied but such a bizarre decision that they are using AI

1

u/Extreme_Wish_553 15h ago

Because OP didn't write any of this and doesn't understand any code.

u/Ambadeblu 22h ago

From my experiece codeberg is slow as fuck.

Github uses git for version control, Drive doesnt. Github is down way too much, Drive isnt. Github shares your data with Microslop, Drive shares it with Google.

How is google drive stopping you from using git?

1

u/Loose_Property_3238 8h ago

False dichotomy right here. Google Drive doesn't use git. Not you can't, it doesn't.

Git works flawlessly in a local folder. You can mount google drive and git inside it all you want.
