git-bug/git-bug

I've used git-bug[1] for issues and it works pretty well. The web-ui is lagging behind and PR support would be everything you'd need to ditch a central-hosted web instance. [1] https://github.com/git-bug/git-bug

I would love to see more projects use git-bug, which works very well for offline collaboration. All bug tracker info is stored in the repo itself. https://github.com/git-bug/git-bug It still needs work to match the capabilities of most source forges, but for small closed teams it already works very well.

I have had my eye on these technologies for a while. Embedding the issue tracker and such in your git repo. Every day these make more and more sense. - https://gitsocial.org/ - https://radicle.dev/ - https://github.com/git-bug/git-bug

> To the "Git is distributed!" crowd: the issue isn't Git, it's the infrastructure we rely on around it: issues, PRs, Actions, etc. A suggestion: use git-bug https://github.com/git-bug/git-bug in addition to migrating to another forge like Codeberg. It saves issues, PRs etc in git itself (not on a branch - on a specially crafted ref). It offers two way sync with a lot of providers. Other VCSes like fossil store issues alongside the repo. I think it's appropriate because in a sense, issues are part of what gives meaning to the code (like documentation)

git-bug[1] looks promising, but I haven't tried it. [1] https://github.com/git-bug/git-bug

Haven't used it, but I've been intrigued by git-bug (stores issues in got itself) for years, to use as the issue/pr sync. Bonus that now the issues aren't vendor locked either https://github.com/git-bug/git-bug/blob/trunk/doc/feature-matrix.md

I would love git-bug project[1] to be successful in achieving that. That way Git forges are just nice Web porcelain on top of very easy to migrate data. [1] https://github.com/git-bug/git-bug

I tried git-bug a few months ago, and https://github.com/git-bug/git-bug/issues/1023 is a showstopper. There is a workaround, but it isn't pretty. You can push/pull bugs and identities with normal, ssh-agent-less git commands: https://gist.github.com/parasyte/80ef925d4b01216f6bcb051356faffb9
