#42I am wondering how the performance compares to Gitea. I guess it would need way more resources
Re: OneDev – A Lightweight Gitlab Alternative
#43#off-topic These are signs of high growth markets, and how counter-intuitive the exponential growth of the internet has been. At the beginning we had Github. And that was enough. Then we had Gitlab, and most of us wondered: "who are these crazy dudes that want to compete with Github?". They were absolutely right, and the market grew so big that they found their own space. Now, more alternatives keep appearing (like O…
In the beginning we had the VMS versioning file system [1] (well I had you might be older ;-) And that was enough. Then we got RCS. Then CVS. Then we got SourceForge. And that was enough. Then we got Git! [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Files-11 <3

#44If you want to properly compete with an existing product that doesn't have a polished UI (e.g. GitLab), about the easiest way you can do it is deliver a polished UI. Unfortunately, OneDev's UI is even less polished than GitLab's. However, it's a big project and I commend the authors.

Show HN is about showing your own work, not just sth you think is interesting. Doesn't matter if you missed it, still shouldn't have posted it.

Is the UI polish what bitters you most about GitLab, and would make you switch?

I'm not a moderator, but there are guidelines for posting and one of them is how often you should repost

was postet many times in the last 12 months and some users even reposted twice.

It's starting to get confusing/difficult to keep track if something is reposted again or just something with the same name.

Nice work btw always astounded how you keep developing it for so long nearly solo. I was many times intrigued enough to try to switch to OneDev just to try it, but my personal git setup is working too well right now. Never switch a running system runs too deep in me.
Anyway there seem to be discussions taking place so I will cut the noise and stop whining.
Re: OneDev – A Lightweight Gitlab Alternative
#49The thing I am still missing is a zero-weight alternative to Github/lab. Most of the task performed on either of them could be done in a completely distributed fashion (issue tracking, CI, etc.), just like git itself. But there has been frustratingly little development in that area, though a few projects exists (e.g. "git-bug", "act").

#50At the moment it always commit and push the change and wait how the pipelines acts, rinse and repeat. If you could run it locally and find out the results would be such a time saver.
