lnxw48a1: I think y’all know I favor the #Fossil #SCM / #DVCS over #Git (though I’m giving #Mercurial ( #Hg ) another look as well. I’m resource-constrained as well as energy-limited, but I have been thinking of standing up a miniature software forge for !FNetworks projects and users, likely using Kallithea (which can use both Hg and Git) and also having some Fossil repos (but not as part of a forge).

lnxw48a1: Planning to play with #Kallithea https://kallithea-scm.org/ soon. I’m still very much in favor of #Fossil https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki but I’m not rigid about it (the way many #Git and #Github users are). If either Git or #Mercurial ( #Hg ) https://www.mercurial-scm.org/ are appropriate for the situation, I’ll use them.

lnxw48a1: @musicman Yes, I think #git is overly complicated for most projects' needs, but it has mindshare, so people often demand it when another VCS would be more appropriate. It'd be great if transitioning from one to another was a well-understood problem, but it isn't. Is that #Emacs that is trying to move from #svn to git with #ESR's help and having a difficult time of it?
