ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT : HN hug of death ?
It works fine now, I believe it could be a redeployment or similar.
it doesnt for me atm

Looks like many GitPlex downloads are going on... And this happens since two hours ago when I posted this news. The first time I've experienced with HN death hug, 8) Another thing in my agenda now (to optimize the web site and download).
hehehe, good luck ... you never know what will happen until the traffic came :-)

#23Looks interesting, is there any precise roadmap ? (could not find one).
Would be particularly interested by C# support, and with the tooling that Microsoft lately, I think it would be a perfect fit !

#24The all caps 'titles' which are really short descriptions of the features make the page hard to read.
Features look good though and the interface is nice.

#25Looks like a Java webapp running on top of jetty [1]. Interesting - that's a quick and easy deployment. I wonder what are the hosting requirements and performance implications.

#26This looks impressive, especially how they seem to handle rebases/squashes with force push, which is a problem that pretty much all other repo managers simply ignore (except for Gerrit, but that one has other problems...).
Yes, that is the first thing I look for too! reviewable.io, is the only other I know of that handles this.

#27Well, in a sense, this departs from github in the sense that they try to keep everything as simple as possible (sort like the Apple design philosophy).
But developers are, or should be, power users. And in that regard a tool like this is VERY welcome. A tool that exposes some more sharp edges in exchange for flexibility.

Yes that is true. We build this tool with easy deployment in mind. And we've devoted a lot of our effort to performance. Just check the linux repository for instance (http://gitplex.pmease.com/demo/linux), GitPlex is able to calculate latest commits of many sub folders quickly, compared to decades needed by other tools, :)
If your repository is not as large as linux, a 1 cpu machine with 1G memory allocated to GitPlex will be more than enough.
Re: Show HN: GitPlex – A new Git repo management server with code review
#29I'd be in favor of having some standard "code review markup language", which could contain review comments and workflows. Then you would be able to put these in files and make those files part of your repository (ie commit/push). Then, you could build various frontends to handle these in a user friendly way if you like. But also, would be accessible and editable in your favorite text editor.
This is something I've been thinking about quite a lot lately – I considered extending our git-flow a bit to contain review branches (or something comparable). If you'd like to chat a bit about potential solutions for your approach just drop me a line!

#30I don't care much about code review , but it's a close enough attractor to the space of code reading that it seems to be draining attention. So let me hijack this topic and post a request for product (I'd write it myself, but priorities... adult life sucks hard). -- I dream of a tool that facilitates code reading and exploration . It has some similar features with code review tools, namely: - integration with version…

That's something that baffles me: the complete lack of a comfortable (or at least not painful) way to read and annotate source code on Android.
