Hi, author here. Happy to answer questions.

Version 0.8 just got out[1]. For the next one, I'll try to focus on making the codebase fully ready for multi-entities and introduce a Project Board. Later we can add support for code review!

If you are looking for how it works, you can have a look at the data model introduction[2].

git-bug is only pushed forward by volunteers so it's taking its time to fully grow, so I'll take the opportunity to welcome everyone to join the fun :-)

I've wanted this ever since I learned that Fossil embedded its own bug tracker. Now I just need a way to ingest GitHub issues into this system

It can already do that using a feature called "bridges"

... which are bidirectional and incremental, meaning that you can use git-bug as an offline and local copy for github[1], without having to convert everyone on the project to that tool.

You may want to review https://www.git-scm.com/about/trademark They have been stingy about projects with git in the name.

It also locks the scope to just git in the mind of the reader. Even if the scope broadens down the road.

A less specific name might benefit the project? The part after the colon will explain the actual purpose.

Have they? GitKraken & GitLens are pretty popular, commercial offerings, and they have been on the market for years.
