TL;DR: I'd feel a lot more comfortable if a couple of people would explicitly review wether I correctly captured the discussion in the summary. So, we've received a number of comments on aspects of the discussion. That plus the original discussion leads me to believe we really are interested in

This all looks very good. Presumably the repository / Salsa project name should match the source package name? If so, that might be good to note, at least as the default. I'd love to see more information about a recommended branch structure. FWIW, I've been using branches named for each

Sam Hartman dixit: >depend on non-free software. Github is a common example of a web >service that uses non-free software. So is Salsa. It does not use the packaged version of GitLab, which is in a sorry state anyway, and not suitable for a stable release, but the proprietary “open core”

Hi Sam & Debianistas, this is far TLDR for me. That is not meant as a critique, but as a feedback so you have a data point from some random Debianer's available CPU resources. (in general I'm fine to declare best practices for whatever issue so that people can orient themselves on where to head

TL;DR: These are only guidelines. You're free to ignore them. So I think the issue you bring up isn't a big deal in this case. In more detail: > "Theodore" == Theodore Y Ts'o writes: Theodore> One thing that is been left unclear is what does it mean Theodore> to "use salsa"?

One thing that is been left unclear is what does it mean to "use salsa"? For example, the e2fsprogs git repository is hosted at multiple locations: * https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/ext2/e2fsprogs.git * https://github.com/tytso/e2fsprogs.git * https://git.code.sf.net/p/e2fsprogs/code *
