Thanks to Song and Paul, we created organization for md-raid on Github. This is a perfect place to maintain mdadm. I would like announce moving mdadm development to Github. It is already forked, feel free to explore: https://github.com/md-raid-utilities/mdadm Github is powerful and it has well integrated CI. On the repo, you can already find a pull request which will add compilation and code style tests (Thanks to Kinga!). This is MORE than we have now so I believe that with the change mdadm stability and code quality will be increased. The participating method will be simplified, it is really easy to create pull request. Also, anyone can fork repo with base tests included and properly configured. Note that Song and Paul are working on a per patch CI system using GitHub Actions and a dedicated rack of servers to enable fast container, VM and bare metal testing for both mdraid and mdadm. Having mdadm on GitHub will help with that integration. Patches sent to ML will be accepted but Github Pull Requests are preferred so please use mailing list only if it is necessary. I will setup GitHub to send email to the mailing list on each new PR so that everyone is still aware of pending patches via the mailing list. As a kernel.org mdadm maintainer, I will keep kernel.org repo and Github in-sync for both master/main branches. Although they will be kept in sync, developers should consider GitHub/main effective immediately after merging this patchset. I have strong confidence that it is good change for mdadm but I understand that review flow will be worse. Thanks all for comments!
