github itself is closed source, but 95% of its functionality is based
on git which is open. One only needs to invoke 3-4 git operations to
support what it does on the website side. Register on the site, fork
the project under user's login, submit a pull request, merge a fork's
branch to the main branch. All these are basically git commands.
Without the glossiness of github, this is not that large of a project.
Submitters will do the rest through git.
I think, instead of tediously going through the PRs by hand, it is
wiser to set up some system like this.
Agreed. +1000
Although if we go down the rabbit hole of building something "like
github" that might take a while. For now prototyping using the github
pull methods might be a good proof of concept. I may look into doing a
github pull request -> GNATS (src) PR gateway if time allows.
Once again github pull request is the worst way of merging patches that exists.
We already have problem with ugly and inaccurate logs, such pull request will
make it even worse.
Making proper merge from github pull request it not that easy, you will need to
fetch pull request as custom branches and cherry-pick them. That is really not
convenient.
Probably a dozen lines of shell.
Actually no: add this to your git config file
fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/*
Then all the pull request will be seen as branches you can safely cherry-pick.
Yes I know that...
