⚡️ Announcing Depot Metal
← Back to changelog

Depot Code, our own source control hosting, is now in private beta. It's a diskless git server backed by blob storage that scales horizontally, mirrors your GitHub repos, and plugs straight into Depot CI.

Unlike the traditional hub-and-spoke git model that welds storage and compute together, Depot Code stores git packfiles and their indexes as objects on S3, keeps refs and metadata in a transactional store, and runs git servers as stateless, horizontally scalable workers. This means higher throughput, better reliability, and scale without pinning repos to machines.

For the beta, you create repositories from the Depot dashboard, either standalone or mirrored from an upstream GitHub repo. Everything after that, cloning, pushing, and fetching, is plain git.
