GitHub lab is woefully out of date #570

Open larryclaman opened 2 years ago

larryclaman commented 2 years ago

The GitHub lab https://github.com/Microsoft/azuredevopslabs/tree/master/labs/vstsextend/github/ is extremely out of date; I think it should be updated or retired.

The README still says things like:

The primary difference between the two is that VSTS is focused on closed source projects and GitHub is focused more on open source projects. GitHub offers both private and public repositories. However, it doesn't have an integrated build server.

That's completely inaccurate as of 2021.

@larryclaman - Thanks for your feedback. What is your opinion? Should this be deprecated or fixed? If you believe the answer is "fixed" then I ask another question... Would you prefer that we spend time updating our Contributions page and clearly state that we accept contributions... and if so, would you be interested in issuing a PR to update this content?

larryclaman commented 2 years ago

I would say deprecate it. There's already a wealth of content available at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/paths/manage-project-lifecycle-github/ IMHO, I don't see the ROI in updating this lab.

HI @larryclaman , https://github.com/Microsoft/azuredevopslabs/tree/master/labs/vstsextend/github/ This lab is already deprecated and is not displayed on our home page https://azuredevopslabs.com

We have new set of labs https://azuredevopslabs.com/labs/vstsextend/github-azurepipelines/ https://azuredevopslabs.com/labs/vstsextend/github-azureboards/

We will add a deprecate note in the https://github.com/Microsoft/azuredevopslabs/tree/master/labs/vstsextend/github/

Thanks

@sriramdasbalaji , thanks for the note. Glad to hear that this lab is no longer featured on the azuredevopslab.com home page, but you should be aware that it is one of the labs still available on the Azure DevOps Demo Generator site https://azuredevopsdemogenerator.azurewebsites.net/, which is how I came across it in the first place.
