Hi all,

Can a GitHub mirror be created for
https://git.openwrt.org/project/firmware-utils.git ?

That applies to a lot more repos, basically project/*
And that may be too much maintenance effort?

Since github PRs are not merged directly anyway, but manually to the git.openwrt.org repos (which then get mirrored back to github), an alternative would be for contributors to add patches to the corresponding packages/*/patches folder and opening a PR to the main repo on github instead.

That has the advantage to use the whole CI setup. And looking at the amount or PRs vs patches to the mailinglist, I think it's safe to say the github move was a success.

This would make it easier for contributers, maybe even getting more patches for those projects.
On top of that, patchwork seems semi-abandoned, stuff suffers from bitrot.

Would that be acceptable?

Cheers,
Andre
