Thanks for point that out, and yes Github has already been discussed and I
haven't been able to find time to properly investigate a conversion and
keep all the branches and investigate how to handle all the new problems
that will happen with Git. It's not going to be a popular opinion but I
know for a fact that all the companies who know what they're doing are all
still privately choosing to use Mercurial over Git, even today. I haven't
been able to dedicate the time to doing this right yet.

I have no idea when I'll find time to handle this or anything else TBH; I
used to spend all my weekends coding on this project, but for the last 3-4
of years I've been focused on growing my career in a new direction and
working 60 hr weeks or more + growing my family. New work on Beancount has
been minimal; I'll eventually get to all those PRs, but that will take
time, I have no idea when. More likely is that there will be a job change
at some point and a few months off will materialize and I'd merge all the
PRs and rewrite the processing half of this in C++ and split out the SQL
code to a separate project with a Beancount plugin. That's what I hope for.

In the meantime I'm just focused on breakage avoidance (if anything causes
real breakage I fix it right away), because I have no time for coding
outside work and I'm still relying on Beancount several
times/week (obviously, my financial life continues and the transactions
keep accruing daily and that all still gets ingested and investment
tracking and all that good stuff).

I might just host it back on my box (at hg.furius.ca) like I used to.
