Looking for a better way to #git.
Tired of #libre sofware #sourcecode being centralised on big players' platforms.
Sourceforge is dying a slow death. Github is too big (but not too big to fail!) Gitlab is now controlled by VCs.
I could setup my own git server, but don't want to isolate myself from potential collaborators.
Today I tried this 3 repo setup:
- Main repo on https://framagit.org by @Framasoft
- Gitlab.com setup as a mirror bridge, pulling from Framagit and pushing to Github

The problem with this setup is that Gitlab is very slow to pull changes, it's far from a live sync.
The advantage is that I'm primarily using an ethical libre service (#Framasoft), whilst taking advantage of features I've only found on the wannabe big player (#Gitlab), and still being having a presence on the place with the biggest network effects (#Github)...
Still, if you know a better way, I'm all ears!

I wish gitlab federated!
