Ex-GitHub CEO's Entire Launches Distributed Git for AI Agents
Summary
A new distributed Git network is now available in preview, designed for the artificial intelligence agent era. This network helps AI coding agents clone and push code without hitting the limits of centralized hosting. Entire Inc., founded by the former GitHub Chief Executive, developed this system. It lets developers mirror an existing GitHub repository onto Entire, with active regions in the U.S., European Union, and Australia. The original code stays on GitHub, while agents use the regional Entire mirror. This offloads heavy traffic, allowing agents to build continuously. The company explains that centralized Git hosting has become a bottleneck as AI agents scale. This can lead to rate limits, slow performance, or outages. Entire rebuilt the Git backend to handle high-volume agent activity. Early tests showed strong performance, with one test sustaining about 570,000 clones an hour from a single repository. The company plans to open-source both the Git backend and its benchmark suite. This matters because it aims to make AI development smoother and more efficient by addressing current infrastructure limitations.
