  • Here’s how I handled my migration to CodeBerg:

    • Code and history - add new remote, git pull and push. Done.
    • pull requests - were not an issue for me. I generally merge them or reject them same day, so I just migrated at the end of a day when none were open.
    • Issues - I just left the GitHub issue queue behind. It is a public archive now. I know where to find it to read it. Anything that matters will get a new issue at CodeBerg, someday.
    • CI/CD - I can’t comment. Mine are 95% bash anyway, so they should be easy to move, but I haven’t yet. My spicy take: most GitHub Actions are a hot mess, because they were written by folks not experienced enough to just use bash. Apologies to anyone who likes GitHub Actions. I’ve had mostly bad experiences with them.

  • It is possible to migrate source code (including history) from GithHub to CodeBerg in just a few commands, and it is free for public repositories.

    So I started there.

    Since I like it, I’m looking into self-hosting my own Forgejo server. I expect that to be a smooth transition, since CodeBerg runs Forgejo under the hood.

    Edit:

    Tip: If it is public, update the GitHub project README with a link to the new location at CodeBerg.





  • Why do people upvote this homophobic shit?

    I took it as a celebration of his life, with a dash of “Hey, as a gay man, life is way better, today.”

    I’m not sure “reduces him (Alan Turing) from a brilliant scientist” is possible, on Lemmy.

    We don’t have saints here, but if that ever changes, Alan Turing and Ada Lovelace will probably be our first and second second and third saints (edit: apologies to Fred Rogers. I feel silly.).

    Edit: Heck, this is fun. Here’s a proposal for our first round inductee Saints of Lemmy candidates:

    • Fred Rogers (Automatic round one draft pick.)

    Then for consideration to complete our first induction year:

    • Alan Turing
    • Ada Lovelace
    • Bob Ross

    And if living people can be inducted:

    • Linux Torvalds
    • Christine Lemmer-Webber
    • Members of the production teams behind Mr Rogers Neighborhood, Sesame Street, Blues Clues + It might take a few years to induct everyone who deserves it.

    I might keep returning to this list. Lots of folks deserve credit here.
