I like the approach that sourcehut took overall. I would like to find a way to implement issue tracking into Git, but the mailing list approach isn't a bad idea.

Isn't that what Fossil does? https://www.fossil-scm.org/

[analognoise → throwaway889900]

Fossil does all kinds of awesome stuff out of the box, I remember looking at it and being blown away.

[encryptluks2 → throwaway889900]

Yes, but I honestly hate the idea of having to learn yet another SCM. I may reconsider at some point though, especially if more implementations emerge.

[GoblinSlayer → encryptluks2]

First time I hear about it. What alternative implementations git has?

[encryptluks2 → GoblinSlayer]

There are multiple... JS, Go, Python, etc.

Maybe git-bug would work for you? https://github.com/MichaelMure/git-bug

Thank you. I am interested, but am concerned by this statement:

git-bug author here.

It's still not v1 where there would be some sort of backward compatibility guarantee, but it's close if you are using master. Note though that even without that guarantee, there is git-bug-migration to provide you some safety.

There is however some bugs and missing features, as in any software that young with an author busy buying/refurbishing an apartment ;)

[q3k → encryptluks2]

That's something you should ask the git-bug authors, I vaguely remember some being on this very website.

FWIW I don't even use git-bug, I just know it exists :).
