Ciao Giacomo,

I never used nor installed/administered sourcehut services, I've some
questions about them:

sourcehut is a suite including this tools providing different services
(some of them already covered by specialized tools in Guix, e.g. CI):

- builds.sr.ht
- git.sr.ht
- hg.sr.ht
- hub.sr.ht
- lists.sr.ht
- man.sr.ht
- meta.sr.ht
- pages.sr.ht
- paste.sr.ht
- todo.sr.ht

git.sr.ht is the tool needed for "web workflow" patch management, it's
documented here: https://man.sr.ht/git.sr.ht/#sending-patches-upstream


git.sr.ht provides a web-based patch preparation UI, which you can use to 
prepare changes to send upstream online. You can even use this to prepare 
patches for projects that use email for submission, but are not hosted on 
SourceHut. This tool may be helpful to users who are used to the "pull request" 
style contribution popularized by GitHub, GitLab, and others.


yesterday I sent a message (id:87il8z9yw8....@xelera.eu) with some
pointers to related articles, two were from Drew DeVault, sourcehut
founder

in the "Tutorials" page I find the section "Contributing to projects on
SourceHut" [1] and the "Read more" link point to
https://git-send-email.io/
