They support it at least somewhat...or at least, they've created DNS records for it.
Hmmm Vanilla seems to break my copy-pasted PRE'd dig output, but I'm too lazy to figure out why.
;github.com. IN AAAA
Github users are asking IPv6 support for quite some years now. I've heard that they do have support for IPv6 for their hooks, but besides that..... no IPv6 support
I ran the same command. Looks like they really don't have an AAAA record. Shame on them.
No, they don't really have IPv6. So it's a bit of a pain to work on IPv6 only VPSs because so many sites don't have IPv6.
I used DNS64/NAT64 nameservers to access IPv4 only sites on a IPv6 only service.

Just add
To the top of your resolv.conf
And then wget and et cetera will be able to grab content from IPv4 only sources over address translation through these DNS servers. Speed is alright actually if not even sometimes really decent!
Hope this can help you to get over the fact that something as big and as popular as GitHub has no IPv6.
