Is it ok to use github as a file hosting?

Question

Is it ok to use github as a file hosting ? Now i dont mean it like cloud hosting like dropbox.

For example:

https://dribbble.com/shots/1722076-Free-iPhone-6-4-7-inch-Template-PSD?list=users&offset=57

This guy designed an iPhone 6 template and he uploaded his work to Github for people to download it:

https://github.com/Ramotion/free-iPhone6-template

Is that ok ?

Answer 1

According to the Terms Of Service on GitHub there is no mentioning of not being able to host files on their service, however as always you are responsible for the content.

Answer 2

As @TheVril already stated, it's ok. But be aware of the following restrictions and possibilities:

• Files are not allowed to exceed 100 MB and respositories should not exceed 1 GB.
• Git Large File Storage (GitHub support coming soon) might be better suited to store large files. (Compared to a git repo.)
• You can create releases to ship binary files.
