Re: Savannah vs. Gitlab

[Ivan Vučica]

Fwiw, I don't think main repo URL should be on Github. Mirror, yes. Ability for devs (who signed copyright assignment) to create pull requests, yes.

Primary hosting on Github? *shrug* there are no strong benefits, I think, and sufficient number of people would be happier if we hosted elsewhere.

How about pushing for Savannah process to be fixed instead? Creating these repos is a one-off, and any new projects can temporarily self-host before being migrated into a "gnustep-myproject" repo on Savannah.

- Github: fork code with a button; start a new repo with a button; easy management of merge request, not so bad in showing diffs; interesting plugins; maybe not so nice in bug tracking; it uses git that is OPEN SOURCE, you are not forced to use its proprietary front-end; it is probably the most used platform to host code; it is full of people; what we need absolutely… people!

- I never heard about Gitlab before, so I can’t talk about it.

I vote for Github.

Me too.

Besides what's stated above, personal experience using Github shows that it's really increasing collaboration. Also, it's well integrated into clients (i.e. SourceTreeApp) and 3rd party systems (i.e. FreeBSD ports collection, as David pointed out quite a few times already). But I'm just reiterating what has already been written countless times before, can we just conclude the vote soon?

Cheers,
