I don't use #git very much. Does someone have a simple tutorial somewhere? #lazyfed

> Deleted all the forks I had on GitHub, moved the very few repos I care about over to Codeberg
I believe moving over to #Codeberg is a big improvement over relying on #GitHub (which, as #SourceForge once was, is the center of gravity for FOSS projects' development).
I closed all my repos on GH some years back. I kept one or two repos on #BitBucket for years, but they were basically dead. When BB rid itself of #Mercurial ( #hg ) and switched solely to #git, I took advantage of the opportunity to close my account there.
That said, large numbers of people moving en mass from GitHub to Codeberg would just move the problem to a different platform. The problem being people rely heavily on a centralized service.
As for GitHub, I still have my account, and with job-hunting, I really need to put something there. Seriously, I have had some places send rejection notices because they couldn't see any evidence (on GitHub) that I knew anything about the job. But I really only want GH to be a secondary mirror of a main repo hosted elsewhere.
-
Most of what I do goes into my #Fossil repo, but I'm also trying to use #Darcs, #Breezy, #Pijul, and #Hg enough to be able to fairly say which ones work best for me.
You'll notice that #Git is not in that list. I'm having to use git whenever I deal with other people's code projects, so I already know that it isn't tailored for my needs.
-
I also think that our #code-hosting solutions needn't presume #git. All of #hg, #fossil, #darcs, #pijul, #brz can be viable depending on the project & organization.
(See conversation here: https://libranet.de/display/0b6b25a8-1361-f814-24c4-aa2977913506 )
There's another related thread that I can't find right now.
-
@lxo I admit I am no expert, but I have not seen a #cryptocurrency based on #git and #gpg.
-
I should find out whether #Darcs and #Pijul have #IRC channels set up for their users. It looks like #Fossil has an unofficial channel (latest info says it is on Freenode). I should also look for #Mercurial and #Git and #Breezy / #Bazaar.

Further info: https://news-web.php.net/php.internals/113838
And with the presumed compromise of git.php.net, all future development activities will take place on #GitHub.

@geniusmusing I find #git to be too big and complex for my needs (and arguably for most projects). I know it “won” and even some projects that formerly used another #VCS ( such as Mercurial #hg, #darcs, Bazaar #bzr / Breezy #brz ) are switching.
In the plans: a very limited #Kallithea install (with git and Mercurial) and #Fossil for Federati ... when I have more funds and energy to devote to getting it going on its own VPS.

@musicman I am not sure about Maven or Ant, but they do have a "Git repo on Github":{https://github.com/apache/tomcat} and a "Subersion repo":{http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat} see https://tomcat.apache.org/source.html

A Categorical Theory of Patches
A formalization of the #Darcs theory of patches. Darcs ( http://darcs.net/ ) is a #DVCS, like #git or #hg or #Fossil, but based around patches.
#VCS #version-control
-
I think y’all know I favor the #Fossil #SCM / #DVCS over #Git (though I’m giving #Mercurial ( #Hg ) another look as well. I’m resource-constrained as well as energy-limited, but I have been thinking of standing up a miniature software forge for !FNetworks projects and users, likely using Kallithea (which can use both Hg and Git) and also having some Fossil repos (but not as part of a forge).

How to publish #git repos that cannot be republished to #GitHub: http://joeyh.name/blog/entry/how_to_publish_git_repos_that_cannot_be_republished_to_github/
-
Planning to play with #Kallithea https://kallithea-scm.org/ soon. I’m still very much in favor of #Fossil https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki but I’m not rigid about it (the way many #Git and #Github users are). If either Git or #Mercurial ( #Hg ) https://www.mercurial-scm.org/ are appropriate for the situation, I’ll use them.
-
@musicman Yes, I think #git is overly complicated for most projects' needs, but it has mindshare, so people often demand it when another VCS would be more appropriate. It'd be great if transitioning from one to another was a well-understood problem, but it isn't.
Is that #Emacs that is trying to move from #svn to git with #ESR's help and having a difficult time of it?
-
@moonman My feelings exactly. I didn't have anything original there ( #Github ) in the first place, but I had patches for others' projects. I removed everything several years ago. Yes, a couple of potential employers have passed on hiring me because my GH account was empty. I just (A) don't want to support centralized facilities like GH or SourceForge any more, when you can host your own #git / #hg / #darcs / fossil; and (B) as my role at work has changed more toward user support, I'm not creating or using such patches any more, so if someone found and started using them, they'd be potentially doing it wrong / importing security holes.
( For a while, I had my own #Fossil repo with some original stuff, but thanks to hosting changes are $EMPLOYER work scheduling / hotel Internet, that's all gone, too. )
