Entire Launches Decentralized Git Network, Claiming 25x Faster Agentic Coding

2 articles · Updated · ZDNet · Jul 8

Summary

  • Preview access opened Wednesday for Entire’s distributed Git network, which lets developers mirror GitHub repositories so coding agents pull from regional hubs instead of a single centralized service.
  • GitHub outages and rising agent traffic are the pitch: Entire says decentralization offloads heavy concurrent reads, reduces rate limits, and keeps developers working when a central platform slows or fails.
  • Initial tests showed about 570,000 clones an hour from one repository and 586 pushes a second—roughly 2.1 million an hour—with the company saying that benchmarks run up to 25x ahead of rivals’ public claims.
  • Thomas Dohmke, GitHub’s former CEO, is leading the company, which says the network already works with Codex, Claude Code, Cursor and GitHub Copilot while storing session data alongside code.
  • Entire plans to open-source its backend and later support native public and private repositories, expanding a network that already has servers in the US, EU and Australia.
