I don't really use dist-git's forge for much. Maybe for hitting "fork" when I need to open a PR against another repo, and filing the PR. Everything else happens via fedpkg/git/bodhi/koji... on the command line. I don't really care about showing the latest versions of packages on dist-git (that's what bodhi/koji is for). That's the most recent user-visible feature, yes? Why that? ~shrugs~ Having a little better admin/group integration would be nice. But as long as it doesn't take ages to fork a repo (and Pagure does sometimes!), I don't really care. I'm also not a proven packager or the owner of a huge package dependency tree (python, java, perl, ...). I really just care about a few packages, plus whatever is in the Stewardship SIG. I guess a little nicer orphan/unorphan package procedure would be nice, but you'd still need a ticket for unretiring dead packages, which is where I've hit the most problems/delays. But as long as I can continue to work from the command line, I don't really care what the WebUI is as long as it works and isn't too slow. My 2c. but I'm really agnostic about dist-git forges. :-) - Alex _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
