I personal feel the same. The mouse is an evil device. :-D [Github] > > - - It does not play well with a own domain > > ... but, github pages ... > https://help.github.com/articles/custom-domain-redirects-for-github-pages-sites/ That I didn't know.

Both issues > and pull requests can be dealt with via git command line as well. I know that there _is_ a way for pull requests. (I don't know how recently.) They are similar to gitorious but not identical and I think, more hidden. Another one is to create forks or simple pull requests. I do not know if that is possible at all with git command line on github. For Issues I do not know even that it is possible. Such Stuff is pretty good hidden away from the user on github.

Yea. I did some with github too. But often I come to the end to send patches by mail to that author.

In that case, apologies for jumping the gun there. > If it is ok for you, I'd drive it as strict mirror repo for now. No problem with that. Git allows to have a de central development model.

Currently I do manually copy them over but this is just a small step.
