Hi List, we were told[0] to post our release announcement to this list.
We're developing a distributed issue tracking software which uses git
[1]. We released version 0.2.0 a few days ago.
The software itself is written in Rust. Why is this software so
special? Because it uses an alternative approach to issue tracking in
git: We do _not_ check files into the repository, but use the git
plumbing functionality to create empty commits (empty as in "no patch
involved") for the issue messages.
This gives us a few benefits: we do not rely on a linear history, thus
mapping mailing lists to the issue repository. Mapping
git{hub,lab,...} to the issue tracking database is possible. Working
offline, in a distributed manner is totally feasible.
We'd love to receive your review and your suggestions, as well as bug
reports and feature requests.
Sidenote: Right now we are tied to the github issue tracking system,
because there is no syncing functionality _yet_. There is also no
web-viewer/client yet. Everything is rather bare by now, as you see.
We're also thinking about a functionality to do pull-requests
including reviews, though that is not-so-simple, of course.
