some numbers. Turns out we passed some pretty significant numbers in the past couple days. And numbers are fun, so we thought we'd share them with you.</p> <h3> <a id="thats-a-lot-of-git-repositories" class="anchor" href="#thats-a-lot-of-git-repositories" aria-hidden="true"><span aria-hidden="true" class="octicon octicon-link"></span></a>That's a lot of git repositories</h3> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20161020071829/https://camo.githubusercontent.com/5ead82ae5adba8a3c5e8cf89f35a0765d83e8e26/687474703a2f2f6769746875622d696d616765732e73332e616d617a6f6e6177732e636f6d2f626c6f672f323031312f6e756d626572732f7265706f2d636f756e742d312e706e67" target="_blank"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20161020071829im_/https://camo.githubusercontent.com/5ead82ae5adba8a3c5e8cf89f35a0765d83e8e26/687474703a2f2f6769746875622d696d616765732e73332e616d617a6f6e6177732e636f6d2f626c6f672f323031312f6e756d626572732f7265706f2d636f756e742d312e706e67" alt="" data-canonical-src="https://web.archive.org/web/20161020071829/http://github-images.s3.amazonaws.com/blog/2011/numbers/repo-count-1.png" style="max-width:100%;"></a></p> <p>What's even more staggering is that <strong>70% have been created in the past year</strong>.
