Former GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke's Entire launches a decentralized Git network to handle high coding agent traffic, with servers in the US, the EU, and Australia

ZDNET Radhika Rajkumar

Context & Ripple Effects

Thomas Dohmke left GitHub as its leadership was moved into Microsoft’s CoreAI organization, then founded Entire. Entire subsequently raised seed funding to build open-source tools for managing AI-written code.

The network launch extends that stated focus from code-management tooling into Git infrastructure, explicitly targeting the traffic produced by coding agents and deploying across the US, EU, and Australia.

First-order effects

  • Entire now has a decentralized Git network designed for workloads generated by coding agents, giving its product a dedicated infrastructure layer rather than only developer tooling.
  • Developers and teams using Entire can place Git activity across server locations in the US, EU, and Australia, while Entire becomes responsible for operating that distributed network.

Second-order effects

  • Git hosting and developer-tool providers will face a clearer challenge around whether their collaboration and repository infrastructure can accommodate agent-driven activity without degrading ordinary developer workflows.
  • Tooling built to review, govern, and manage AI-written code becomes more tightly linked to the underlying repository and version-control layer, potentially increasing the value of integrated offerings.

Third-order effects

  • If agent-generated changes continue to increase Git activity, version control may become a distinct scaling and architecture battleground rather than a largely commoditized layer of the developer stack.
  • The move points toward developer platforms differentiating on control over AI-generated code—its creation, storage, review, and history—though it remains unclear whether decentralized Git networks will become the prevailing deployment model.

The trend: AI coding agents are pushing developer infrastructure providers to redesign the systems that store, synchronize, and govern software changes, not just the interfaces that generate code.

    Entire is coming out of stealth: @ashtom, GitHub's last CEO, is building an AI-native GitHub. Thousands of users are on the product, from small AI-native startups to large enterprises frustrated with how slow their SDLC is. I'm an investor... my ONLY investment the last 2 years!
  • @ashtom Thomas Dohmke on x
    We will continue building up and down the stack towards an open, decentralized, independent developer ecosystem for any agent and any human. More things on our horizon: Tamper evident branch history and policy-as-code branch protection independently verifiable by any client. A

    Under the hood, Entire is a fully rebuilt Git backend, running on nodes distributed around the world. Users can pin their repos to a single region or spread the load across several. More regions coming, self-hosting too. See you soon India, Japan, Singapore, Brazil, and many more…

    Pushes to GitHub-backed branches run at GitHub speed, but we also support Entire-native branches on mirrored repos that absorb far more concurrency. Coming next, Entire native public & private repos. 🔒🪾Early users get access first: https://entire.io/...

    With mirroring, agents clone from an Entire region that absorbs the read traffic: fast, low latency, high rate limits. Here's a clone of the same repo between GitHub and Entire: ✅ [video]

    42 is the answer to everything. This is @EntireHQ's answer to Git in the era of agents: fast, independent, distributed. Mirror your GitHub repos, let your agents clone and pull from the region(s) of your choice, and...we're open sourcing it. 🤖 [image]
