After creating a repository on GitHub and writing code, users can push their changes to the platform, triggering certain events. When pushing code, if service hooks are set up, GitHub will notify others of new branch or tag creation by piping one commit to them. Additionally, GitHub has introduced delete events to inform users when a branch or tag is remotely deleted. These features enhance user experience by improving communication and collaboration, though they are not part of a larger feature launch hinted at by Scott in a previous post.
