  1. Do you remember the time when @google thought that hosting #opensource projects as a service was a good idea?

    Maybe looking at #GoogleCode for good old projects, managed through #svn , bring you good old memories.

    Yes you can do it.... at @swheritage archive. Check archive.softwareheritage.org/b

    It is like going back in time, I know. Looking ahead, by the way.... will @GitHub live forever?

  2. Starting slowmotion shutdown of repos, first step made last commit to active development branch inxi-perl, where lives. The old file will remain for a while, so you can update using -U and get that, then you have to update -U again to be current. I'd been commiting to gh to keep pinxi current, no more.

    Unraveling a code repo is a pain, but as now and gh have taught, relying on proprietary code repos is just a bad idea, thanks @Codeberg for making this possible.
