GitHub Pages limits

Learn about the limits and limitations of GitHub Pages.

¿Quién puede utilizar esta característica?

GitHub Pages se encuentra disponible en los repositorios públicos con GitHub Free y con GitHub Free para las organizaciones, y en los repositorios públicos y privados con GitHub Pro, GitHub Team, GitHub Enterprise Cloud, y GitHub Enterprise Server. Para más información, consulta Planes de GitHub.

GitHub Pages ahora usan GitHub Actions para ejecutar la compilación de Jekyll. Al usar una rama como origen de la compilación, se deben habilitar GitHub Actions en el repositorio si deseas usar el flujo de trabajo integrado de Jekyll. Como alternativa, si no están disponibles o se han deshabilitado GitHub Actions, agregar un archivo .nojekyll a la raíz de la rama de origen omitirá el proceso de compilación de Jekyll e implementará el contenido directamente. Para más información sobre la habilitación de GitHub Actions, consulta Administrar los ajustes de las GitHub Actions de un repositorio.

Usage limits

GitHub Pages is not intended for or allowed to be used as a free web-hosting service to run your online business, e-commerce site, or any other website that is primarily directed at either facilitating commercial transactions or providing commercial software as a service (SaaS). Los sitios GitHub Pages no se deben usar para realizar transacciones que impliquen el envío de información confidencial como contraseñas o números de tarjeta de crédito.

In addition, your use of GitHub Pages is subject to the GitHub Terms of Service, including the restrictions on get-rich-quick schemes, sexually obscene content, and violent or threatening content or activity.

GitHub Pages sites are subject to the following usage limits:

  • You can only create one user or organization site for each account on GitHub.

  • GitHub Pages source repositories have a recommended limit of 1 GB. For more information, see Acerca de los archivos grandes en GitHub.

  • Published GitHub Pages sites may be no larger than 1 GB.

  • GitHub Pages deployments will timeout if they take longer than 10 minutes.

  • GitHub Pages sites have a soft bandwidth limit of 100 GB per month.

  • GitHub Pages sites have a soft limit of 10 builds per hour. This limit does not apply if you build and publish your site with a custom GitHub Actions workflow.

  • In order to provide consistent quality of service for all GitHub Pages sites, rate limits may apply. These rate limits are not intended to interfere with legitimate uses of GitHub Pages. If your request triggers rate limiting, you will receive an appropriate response with an HTTP status code of 429, along with an informative HTML body.

If your site exceeds these usage quotas, we may not be able to serve your site, or you may receive a polite email from Soporte de GitHub suggesting strategies for reducing your site's impact on our servers, including putting a third-party content distribution network (CDN) in front of your site, making use of other GitHub features such as releases, or moving to a different hosting service that might better fit your needs.

Educational exercises

Using GitHub Pages to create a copy of an existing website as a learning exercise is not prohibited. However, in addition to complying with the GitHub Terms of Service, you must write the code yourself, the site must not collect any user data, and you must include a prominent disclaimer on the site indicating that the project is not associated with the original and was only created for educational purposes.
