minus-squareKissaki@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up11·9 months agoDid you not do code reviews? It’s the main thing I would miss. Being able to comment in-line, and manage iterations, is very valuable to me.
minus-squaresolrize@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·9 months agoGerrit still exists for that. Whether it’s currently best, idk.
minus-squareKissaki@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·9 months agoGerrit is a hosted service, no?
minus-squareKissaki@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·9 months agoTheir comment was about not having any hosted service though.
minus-squaresolrize@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·9 months agoWhat does that even mean? If it’s a service, it’s a program running on some computer somewhere. Is that not hosting?
minus-squareKissaki@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·9 months agoThey were talking about hosting the git repository via sftp - so bare file transfer - a bare repository. And how that was enough for them. While that is also hosted, and hosted through a service, it’s only a file transfer service and hosting. That means specifically without a hosted service like a forge or gerrit. Which is why I was interested in how they handle stuff that is usually done through such forges and services / hosted software.
minus-squaresolrize@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·9 months agoOh I see. The Linux kernel has been doing fine with mailing lists (LKML) for decades, if that helps.
minus-squaremesamunefire@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·9 months agoWe did. You bring down the branch and then discuss. We used jetbrains and it had a function like that. But it was a while back.

You can self host it.
