Au moins une demi-douzaine de personnes ont été arrêtées. Cette vague de répression révèle la paranoïa de Pékin vis-à-vis de toute version non conforme à la vérité officielle sur le Covid-19. Ils en avaient fait leur passion : archiver sur un système hébergé à l’étranger, la plate-forme américaine GitHub, les contenus – articles de presse ou de réseaux sociaux – qui disparaissent de la Toile chinoise à chaque razzia de la censure.

En raccourci :
But :
In a world where nearly all software relies on open source code, maintaining the resilience and health of the free and open source ecosystem is more important than ever. That’s why we believe that dependence on centrally hosted platforms and corporations for the distribution of critical open source infrastructure is unsustainable. Reliance on such centralized services contradicts the values of the free and open source ecosystem and threatens its well-being.
Principes :
Designing by principles
As we set out to build an alternative, we started by thinking about the values that we recognize as integral to free and open source code collaboration. With that said, we developed the following list of guiding principles:
1. It must prioritize user freedom In the words of the free software movement
2. It must be accessible and uncensorable
3. It must be user-friendly
4. It must be offline-first
5. It must not compromise on security
Fonctionnement :
Radicle’s approach is meant to return to the protocol-first philosophy by focusing on building code collaboration primitives instead of user experiences, and to reject data collection and siloing by intermediaries. This is reflected in the decision to build on and extend git. Having it as the nexus of replication builds on its strengths and decentralized nature. Having issues, pull requests, comments, and reviews locally gives developers the tools to manage and design their workflows without locking them into a new “experience”. Despite any front-end interface that will be built (😉), Radicle exists foremost as an open protocol — not a platform.

Howto pour rebaser un fork Github :
I recently forked a project and applied several fixes. I then created a pull request which was then accepted.
A few days later another change was made by another contributor. So my fork doesn’t contain that change.
How can I get that change into my fork?
# Add the remote, call it "upstream":
git remote add upstream https://github.com/whoever/whatever.git
# Fetch all the branches of that remote into
# remote-tracking branches, such as upstream/master:
git fetch upstream
# Make sure that you're on your master branch:
git checkout master
# Rewrite your master branch so that any commits of yours
# that aren't already in upstream/master are replayed
# on top of that other branch:
git rebase upstream/master
# force the push in order to push it to your own
# forked repository on GitHub

GhostRed : un utilitaire pour créer/synchroniser les tickets d’un Redmine depuis les pull-request d’un projet sur Github :
One of the challenges of hosting projects on GitHub and their ticket trackers elsewhere is linking items like GitHub Pull Requests with tickets. I’ve written a very simple API-driven prototype tool called GhostRed to do some simple integration. GhostRed scans GitHub pull requests, creates Redmine tickets in an appropriate project for them and then closes the request with a comment that includes a link to the ticket created.

Import your project from GitHub to GitLab | GitLab
▻https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/import/github.html
Un outil pour migrer un repo de Github vers Gitlab, avec semble t’il la quasi-totalité des éléments (tickets, pull-request entre autre) :
Using the importer, you can import your GitHub repositories to GitLab.com or to your self-hosted GitLab instance.
The following aspects of a project are imported:
- Repository description (GitLab.com & 7.7+)
- Git repository data (GitLab.com & 7.7+)
- Issues (GitLab.com & 7.7+)
- Pull requests (GitLab.com & 8.4+)
- Wiki pages (GitLab.com & 8.4+)
- Milestones (GitLab.com & 8.7+)
- Labels (GitLab.com & 8.7+)
- Release note descriptions (GitLab.com & 8.12+)
- Pull request review comments (GitLab.com & 10.2+)
- Regular issue and pull request comments
References to pull requests and issues are preserved (GitLab.com & 8.7+), and each imported repository maintains visibility level unless that visibility level is restricted, in which case it defaults to the default project visibility.

Lumi #blockchain WalletOpen-source is one of the major concepts in the #cryptocurrency space as the whole industry basically grew up on it. Nowadays, building a crypto project without publishing at least a part of your code on #github is considered to be bad manners.Most of the developers involved in open-source projects are driven by the same goal: create a product that they will use themselves. This way, you get deeply involved and know about every single issue at stake. Could you think of better motivation?But there’s a flip side to this. Running a business based on an open-source model can be rather tricky.Firstly, you have to consider that it’s going to, at the very least, double the duration of the whole development process. And, since the issue of time can be especially critical for (...)

Few years back, Bitbucket shines when putting it next to Github. Before Github came up with Github Actions and free unlimited private repos, Bitbucket already did. Since I was freelancing, most of my repos need to be private, and paying is less of an option to me, I decided to use Bitbucket.However, things have changed a lot. Github is now more comprehensive, and some necessary features are still missing in Bitbucket, like labeling a #git issue.With Bitbucket, I also get a missing portfolio of mine which is the contribution activity graph.
