Re: CrossWire and git

No objection - as long as it is accepted that the modules stay in GitLab.

Betreff: Re: [sword-devel] CrossWire and git

Guys who prefer GitLab, I am sorry. No university research project, no commercial job has ever asked me to use GitLab. They have all asked me use GitHub. From a purely popular choice and to prevent all of us from having to create yet another account (I am sure most everyone already has a GitHub account) and learn yet another tool, can't we just settle on GitHub. Would it make anyone extremely unhappy? GitLab is not my preferred choice.

There is plenty more but this gives a decent summary. GitLab allows private repos which I think are a really useful thing. I think it should also be easier to integrate our own GitLab stuff or move it if we want to

This comparison is quite dated (for instance, GitHub definitely has CI/CD integrated nowadays, and GitLab is by no means buggy and slow), but I also would support GitLab over GitHub as our definitive location simply on the principle of it being FOSS instead of closed source hosting.

It does have an identical Code owners feature to GitHub with the same syntax and location. I'm not sure if it's available in the self hosted/free versions or if it is one of their premium features. I'm getting conflicting information on that.

It does support automatic mirroring, so it would be easy for us to self host the official repository but still allow automated mirrors on GitHub and the public GitLab for ease of contribution by others.

We aren’t a democracy but as far as it goes - I welcome the move to Git so, so gladly and I vote for moving towards GitLab as there is more active development of us already

I am very happy with this progress in your thinking about git. I just

reiterate my preference for gitlab, where as Peter has already pointed

out we now have all our modules. It would be consistent to add the sword

sources there as well.

@David I don't particularly use github for my personal projects which

are all under gitlab.
