I have no idea what this means, sorry.
The way salsa (gitlab, git) works, does not fit how uploads in Debian
work. One of the reasons people built a ton of things that (ab)use parts
of git to make it work.
b.) a codebase so much larger and made out of so many more
components
than all of this proposals code combined together, it will be
*worse*.
I mean, look at the security history of Gitlab. Sure, they are fast
in
fixing. But they are *constantly* fixing things up with "critical
release, apply ASAP".
You can take that paragraph, do s/Gitlab/Linux kernel/ and it would
still 100% apply. So do you propose that this additional forge runs on
Hurd then? It's got no security advisories! A nice and clean security
history.
It is *not* a forge. It is a git store. Not even one directly touched by
users.
