Hello bit maintainers & contributors,
would migrating to Codeberg from Github be a possibility?
I was a bit reluctant to ask this question because I am not a maintainer, and
this decision belongs to the maintainers, that said, I have reported some bugs
and feedback via Github's issue in the past - and I am really appreciated the
responses and questions from maintainers. I no longer can do so because I
deleted my Github account. I am no longer confortable using Github (i.e. a
proprietary software running on the servers of a privately owned company). I
would be confortable again to report (small) hiccups I see (BiT works really
well overall) if the repository was hosted on the server of non-profit, for
example Codeberg e.V., running a copyleft-licensed software, e.g. Forgejo.
If you are wondering what the migration takes, this
https://docs.codeberg.org/advanced/migrating-repos/ documents how to migrate
from Github to Codeberg (or any other Gitea/Forgejo instances).
There is a feature to migrate Issues ("the migration tool can not only migrate
your repository data, but also metadata like issues, labels, wiki, releases,
milestones, etc").
Again, I imagine the decision belongs to maintainers. Please take this email as
an input to the conversation on whether BiT should migrate away from Github._______________________________________________
