Lots of startups. At least that's been my experience. Github org with private repos
Does GitHub offer some sort of contract or agreement for those companies? Not an expert on these things, things like NDA’s, uptime guarantees, etc.
I think so? I'm not an expert on the setup or agreement, just worked under that situation. I assume there's a privacy agreement and some level of uptime commitment
I guess upstarts are expected to cut corners.
Because if not, I feel like this could get the team in legal or at least financial hot water with investors.
Which doesn't mean it doesn't happen, just that it's not normal and okay.
Exactly. We’re not taking about hobby projects anymore.
