Gitea est l'alternative à auto-héberger légère de Github.
Forgejo est le fork européen développé par l'organisation non-profit Codeberg.
En utilisant le protocole ATProto, Tangled peut connecter les repositories aux réseaux sociaux.
Les hébergements d'instances Gitlab, puisque Gitlab provient.
Des instances de Forgejo sont disponibles en Suède via Codebahn en ou Suisse via Codey.
Des alternatives à Forgejo émerge comme http://pushin.eu/ et http://rickub.com/
A dashboard tracking github incidents.
Their uptime without incident is not so great.
Github stats are not pertinent anymore because Claude AI can turn them upside down.
It’s now easy to ask Claude to generate a list of interesting open source projects, then ask Claude to find some problems in them, and then ask Claude to raise some PRs to fix them. You don’t even have to use the projects or care about them, but you can easily create the illusion to outsiders that you care, or that you found a problem, or that you put the time into fixing it. [...]
Maybe this was unreasonable, but truthfully, I’m just not interested in encouraging people to take up our time with this kind of busywork. I do not want to set a precedent of accepting PRs that materially improve nothing, nor do I want our contributor list to become a reward for asking a robot to fix typos.
"AI” has only accelerated this trend. These days, you’re lucky to get a pull request from a real human being. Discussing changes is no longer fun when you’re talking to a bot 90% of the time.
I hope someone builds a community for developers; we need one now more than ever.
Another major outage
Codeberg being described as a competitor to Github by tech-tabloid writers feels really on point with their usual level of journalism.
Like sure let's have a small community-based forge pitched against the biggest forge owned by one of the biggest high-tech corporations.
It's quite like if you'd describe a local farmers market as a competitor to Lidl.
Azure is also not enough for Copilot, so Microsoft turns to the compute of AWS.
It is based on Nostr.
Tout le monde peut utiliser la config git user.name et user.email.
Afin de vérifier ces commits, ils faut indiquer à Git de les signer
Générer une clé
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "votre@email.com"
Puis instruire à git de l'utiliser:
git config --global gpg.format ssh
git config --global user.signingkey ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub
git config --global commit.gpgsign true
git config --global tag.gpgsign true
Puis ajouter cette clé de signature dans la forge logicielle.
Pour GitLab: https://docs.gitlab.com/user/project/repository/signed_commits/
Github place ce bug comme "ineligible", puisque cela ne donne pas accès aux repos ni privilèges, donc ce n'est pas une faille au sens strict.
Cepeeendaaaaaant, l'identité affichée influence les décisions; et il incombe à l'utilisateur de vérifier les signatures.
The migration to Codeberg is really easy.
And the licences?

A modern approach to programming. The pull request system seems great as I see on the landing page. It stacks up.
GitHub Issues as free database
A way to cheat the git commit graph: commits can be generated at different times.
Putting aside GitHub’s relationship with ICE, it’s abundantly clear that the engineering excellence that created GitHub’s success is no longer driving it.
Most importantly, Actions has inexcusable bugs while being completely neglected. After the CEO of GitHub said to “embrace AI or get out” [...]
and one blocker is now the source of revenue:
GitHub Sponsors is a large fraction of Zig Software Foundation’s donation income, we consider it a liability. We humbly ask if you, reader, are currently donating through GitHub Sponsors, that you consider moving your recurring donation to Every.org, which is itself a non-profit organization.
Against toast notifications
Github va devenir de plus en plus important pour Microsoft.
Je parie que le service va se merdifier durant les prochaines années; comme déjà les PRs de Copilot.
