Saddly it does. There is probably a significant number of developers who never used git without Github.

As a funny aside, when Github breaks the thing to say is "I wish one day someone would invent a decentralized version control system" ;-)

For many developers the only reason we use git is github. I for one much prefer mercurial but to collaborate with others (and now for my job) github is a de facto standard.
