I think hosting at #Savannah is what @mattl will set up for us.
-
I think we had problems getting access at first. And it hasn't always had support for #git. And we were already using Gitorious anyway.
-
@sergiodj I find it hard to trust a company that buys up their competitors and then just shuts them down. .P
(migrating data as compensation isn't enough, I was personally using Gitorious explicitly because they were AGPL). Unfortunately I don't think their software will live on through community support either.
-
@mmn One of my concerns, even though I have not personally used the Gitorious !selfhost ed software, is exactly that: would there be enough interest to keep development going. I, too, generally prefer the #GPL family of licenses. #LGPL #AGPL
-
@mmn & @mattl, please do a "git repack -a -d -f --window=250 --depth=250 --window-memory=100m" or similar before pushing the #git repo to its new home. It'll significantly cut the time/bandwidth required for new clones.
-
Or better still, git et. al. shouldn't transfer the entire history, it's rarely needed and can be a clone option.
-
@rozzin @mmn @mattl #Savannah is ugly as hell. #GitLab is licensed under #MIT.
-
@postblue, I'm not sure whether you're saying !GNUsocial should be hosted on gitlab.com or that the #GitLab code should be deployed as a #Savannah feature.

I've done this locally on my repo now.
