We are considering to move postmarketOS to SourceHut: postmarketos.org/blog/2022/07/

(Please read the full blog post instead of just commenting based on the headline 😉)

@postmarketOS

“In 2022, many developers are now used to the merge request / pull request submit and review workflow via web UI. On SourceHut, developers are supposed to send patches via git send-email.”

This is embarrassing.

Please choose well-run independent GitLab oder Gitea instance instead. I heard good things about Codeberg which runs Gitea.

Or reconsider self-hosting. I run two GitLab instances and it is not much hassle. Gitea is said to be even easier to host.

What is embarrassing about git send-email it is used by one of the largest FOSS projects out there, the linux kernel?

Also sourcehut has a webinterface to submit the patches.

@joao @postmarketOS

Git was created for that project. What works for them does not necessarily work for other projects.

Do you realize that the argument you just posted is much more informative and contributes better to a debate on what tool to use than a simple:

"This is embarrassing"

That is a nice online rant but not really an argument.
