Yet one more MSE repository. But now you still need to manage permissions one by one to the MSEdocumenting repository, exchanging emails to get usernames, how they must register etc. So you didn't reduce your effort at all, in fact you made it worse. It also delays somebody from making a contribution - which as experience dictates, they just move on to something else. > The problem with git is that the repositories can become huge Oh please! MSEide+MSEgui's repository is minute compared to others like LibreOffice, Git, Linux Kernel, Qt etc. I don't think you have to worry about MSEide+MSEgui's repository size for decades to come. It is not like you are going to store the generated help output (HTML, IPF etc), you are only storing the fpdoc XML files. If repository size is such an issue, they can always clone the repo and limit the history to x commits via the --depth parameter. For example: git clone --depth 10 https://gitlab.com/mseide-msegui/mseide-msegui.git msegui Now after the clone, each branch will only contain 10 commits of history. Size problem solved!
