Hi @elstudio! 👋
BTW, hello everybody 😄
Hello! Thank you for helping move the adoption of git and GitHub forward in the VA. I'm looking forward to leveraging the power of git, and the collaborative tools provided by GitHub, to create higher quality products.

Hello, this is great I am an SQA/SW Tester for EPMD. Loved the 1st training. I was not expecting to see how GitHub can be used for the new Agile SDLC, specifically how the 'work items' (tests-bugs) live with the User Stories they are testing. Looking forward to learning a lot more and implementing how SQA/SW Testers will use that part of GitHub...
I won't bother a coworker like I a marketing thing, lol
[] get my GitHub access, this is a .com GitHub., so wondering if it is the right one. I expected a GitHub.va.gov....
[ ] waiting for the Thanksgiving project
[ ] look for any TMS GitHub training for the project management, ie the 'issues' of type (i know this is a Rat term) in GitHub, not just the source code control of checking in and out
[ ] go thru the links above, 1st time I have seen this
I tried now, updated comment a few hours later
Is this the place to ask what i hope are generic type questions, like: I see we have two GitHubs (GitHub.com and github.ec.com). The 'ec' one is called enterprise GitHub, but what is this one called? @nataliebradley
@davissong Questions are always welcome!
The Department of Veterans Affairs has two instances of GitHub available to the community to advance development best practices — GitHub.com and GitHub Enterprise.
The default instance for all VA teams is GitHub.com. VistA projects will use the GitHub Enterprise (GitHub.va).
Here's some info on the differences:
GitHub.com (GitHub Enterprise Cloud)
This GitHub.com is the VA’s default source code repository. It is hosted by GitHub in their FedRAMP-authorized cloud environment. This instance provides the VA with access to thousands of open source repositories and code allowing for much more efficient software development and ease of new hire on-boarding. Access rights and permissions are granted by VA admins. Private repositories are configured by default within this instance and are only viewable and accessible to those granted permission by a VA Administrator. Public repositories within this instance are viewable as read-only to the general public. The GitHub.com instance is FedRamp tailored and has received VA ATO approval.
-This instance does support early Code Development and Project Management processes with vendors and contractors when conducting on-boarding operations.
GitHub.va (GitHub Enterprise Server)
GitHub.va (or GitHub Enterprise Server) is hosted behind the VA firewall. This instance should be used for VistA projects. Information hosted in this instance can only be accessed with VA PIV cards and its content can only be viewed internally. Private repositories within this instance are only viewable and accessible to those with appropriate access to the repository. Public repositories within this instance are viewable through read-only access to anyone within the VA network.
-This instance uses single sign-on (PIV) -This instance cannot be seen by individuals outside of the VA employee network.
All of this can be found on the OIT GitHub website: https://vaww.oit.va.gov/services/github Hope that helps!
