Never quite understood why large enterprises use github as core infrastructure.

Sure use it to collab externally, use it if you can't justify running your own infrastructure, but why are large companies choosing to place code externally - which is one secret leak away from compromise?

Pass the buck. There's no one to blame but yourself if you're self-hosting.
