git is decentralized. Any sane sysadmin wouldn't use github as a 'central' point, but set up an own remote to which you push. Then every once in a while from that remote, commits are pushed to github.

heck you wouldn't even really need a remote.

Alternatively you can set up an alias (i.e. "all") for multiple remotes and just push to them in one hit. Useful when I'm pushing code to Heroku and GitHub simultaneously.

Aliases on that scale are like hosts files. An utter shit to manage. Its why they invented dns which is a centralized delegated service.

The "single source of truth" is hard to avoid.
