Heck they stole most of their name from BitBucket: https://bitbucket.org/features https://bitbucket.org/features And BitBucket was an attempt to steal GitHub's business primarily with Mercurial at the time, that Atlassian bought up, and since then GitHub has still been their #1 competitor, (not counting Sourceforge).

BitBucket and GitHub both launched in 2008, as far as I can tell. So I wouldn't say BitBucket was an attempt to steal GitHub's business.

Oh, come on. Bitbucket and GitHub both emerged at the same time; neither is a copy of the other, nor do GitHub's founders think that.
