Final update
On July 2nd, 2026, between approximately 15:00 and 18:30 UTC, the GitHub Pages service experienced degraded deployment performance due to a surge in demand that exceeded available processing capacity. During this period, users publishing to GitHub Pages may have seen their deployments queued or taking substantially longer than usual to go live. No other GitHub services were impacted. We mitigated the incident by scaling up Pages deployment workers and provisioning additional storage capacity to clear the backlog. GitHub is reviewing capacity planning and autoscaling measures to reduce the likelihood of similar delays in the future.
