Hi everyone, In the Phabricator requests sysadmin is getting, as well as the conversation on IRC i'm noticing a disturbing trend where people are not aware of the critical distinction between Projects and Repositories and are using the terms interchangably.
These two are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT concepts in Phabricator, so it is critical everyone distinguishes between what they are. Repositories are containers of source code, run using a VCS (Git, Subversion, Mercurial, etc). They are browsed at https://phabricator.kde.org/diffusion/ Projects are relational structures, which can have tasks, repositories and many other objects associated with them. They are used for organisation and grouping. They are browsed at https://phabricator.kde.org/projects/. They do NOT offer any access to repositories in and of themselves - that is done through Repositories. Tasks, Repositories, etc can all be associated with multiple projects as needed, and projects can have multiple Tasks, Repositories, etc. Effectively a Many to Many relationship. This is particularly important for Sysadmin requests for these entities (entities which have many, many repositories may only actually need one project to organise their tasks for instance).
