Source hut build slave for ppc64? Groundbreaking!

To ask the dumb question, what is source hut? It looks essentially like Gitlab to me.

It can do the same tasks like Gitlab (Git hosting, issue tracking, CI and more) but it does it in a different way that is more similar to the workflow of the Linux kernel and other big open source projects.

For example instead of pull requests, you have mailing lists in which you send patches. You can see more in the website of Sourcehut: https://sourcehut.org

Ahh, makes sense. Thanks!

Not a dumb question. https://sourcehut.org should tell you what you need to know. If you have any specific questions, I can answer them.

Hello!

I went through that website before posting. That's why I thought it was a Gitlab-like service. I like that it works without JavaScript, and it appears to have a wiki-like integration too.

It looks like a neat service.

It's designed so that most (all?) of the tasks you might do are "web optional" so e.g. old fogies like me can submit PRs via e-mail, and have the young whippersnappers review those requests on the web.

I migrated after bitbucket decided to kill hg support. I could probably get by using git, but I like that I don't have to :)

All in all, I have been very happy.
