Sure, I know a lot of projects have been on GH since before MS bought it, but they’ve owned it for quite a while now, so we really should be seeing better migration out by now, no?

Codeberg is nonprofit which seems more in the spirit of the Linux ecosystem overall. GH is for-profit…

    This was really informative, thank you so much for taking the time! Definitely bookmarking this. :)

    I was looking up further why you’d use a bare repo over a standard one. Somebody said for just sharing a repo between users, “snapshots just take up unnecessary space.”

    …But would that mean you can’t roll back history? Maybe I’m ignorant on the term snapshot in Git context lol.

    But yeah, I really appreciate the post and I think that’ll get me on the right foot, to actually developing games instead of setting up yet another tool and procrastinating what I want to actually be doing anyway. 😂

    Glad my instinct was correct about not using Syncthing for this purpose. XD

      Happy to help! And yes, I have no idea what they’re talking about. If you don’t have snapshots (commits) you don’t have version control.

      Let me know when you get your game going, I’d love to check it out. I’m working on a few myself.
