GitHub Gist is a code snippet sharing service provided by GitHub that lets you upload one or more files and share them by URL without creating a repository. Each gist is actually a Git repository, so revision history is kept and it can be cloned and forked. There are two kinds, public and secret, and it supports comments, syntax highlighting, and embedding in web pages. It is commonly used to keep short text such as configuration files, scripts, and notes, or to attach code to a question post.
