[CodePipeline / CodeStar] GitHub returned an Internal Error exception

Question

From this post (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29891656), it looks like GitHub is no longer supporting unauthenticated "git://".

Our CodePipeline builds stopped working today and we're getting the following error in the `Source` step:

```
[GitHub] GitHub returned an Internal Error exception. Please retry shortly. If the issue continues it may be reported on the GitHub status page at https://githubstatus.com
```

Does CodeStar use "git://"?

Accepted Answer

Around the time your question was posted, GitHub was having some API problems:
- https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/cypv026dr23w
- Although the first link only talks about pages/actions, [some reports](https://twitter.com/kevinswiber/status/1481089797837910016) seem to indicate it was more widespread

Those GitHub problems would have resulted in the Source step error that you reported.
