GitHub to Ship Source Code on CD-ROMs by Request

GitHub has introduced a new physical archival option for developers. The platform is now offering to ship CD-ROMs containing source code. Users can request this service to receive a physical copy of their repositories. This initiative provides a tangible backup method for codebases. The offer applies to users who specifically ask for the physical media. It represents a nostalgic return to physical storage formats for digital assets. The move highlights the enduring value of physical backups in software development. Developers interested in this service must initiate the request through GitHub. The CD-ROMs serve as a permanent, offline record of the hosted projects. This feature bridges the gap between modern cloud hosting and legacy media.
