Irony of ironies. Gitlab's import-from-GitHub functionality has been broken ever since we tried to migrate away. (They're going ot fix it soon.)

I'm sorry you had a bad experience with this. The importer can still get better but we're importing about 500 projects per hour at peak https://www.dropbox.com/s/hr3ndcmu21aehmk/Screenshot%202019-...

Some imports work. The ones that failed are those with release notes (which were also the more important ones). And they fail silently (succeeded but no releases imported), which is annoying. I could dig up the issue numbers.

I'm generally very pleased with GitLab. I'm delighted that it's open source.

Alright, cue the usual: Monoculture bad Microsoft bad Git is distributed but all the things around it that we really need aren't You can set up git to push to multiple remotes automatically Nobody is actually using git in distributed mode Did I forget anything?

What about "rookie mistakes by code artisans who are making it up as they go along"?

No, it's just the US tech bubble. When my whole country and some was suddenly denied all google services for several hours, including CDNs, DNS, all cloud, gmail, android app store, gdocs, all everything, it didn't make any news here either, despite being much more disruptive, affecting 10+ million people, and being a much more intersting reminder of how much techies make other people and themselves dependent on this…

Did you post about that incident when it happened?

Yes.

Funny thing, I didn't even notice. In fact, being heavily reliant on Git and Github, I encountered maybe one or two issues a year when I couldn't push to Github because it was unavailable. In those cases, the progress can still be made locally, my workflow was barely affected. Of course, the deployment was impossible, but the downtime was never significant enough to worry or do anything about.

I hope to see a trend towards "you can host a Git repository yourself, why do you depend on GitHub?".

Can anyone recommend an issue tracker that is distributed with the repo?

@TODO comments strewn around in your repo.

The conspiracy about how much infrastructure has been going down this summer, and how it's probably interns / a state actor / people pushing to get things in production before performance reviews / people being on holiday / that we've reached peak complexity.

Conspiracy of people being on holiday?
