curious: why use own hosting rather than github?

I think Christian finds the absence of a bug tracker an issue to have a global view of the work being done on pass. While many foss projects don’t rely on proprietary platforms, some do have a bug tracker like Python (https://bugs.python.org), GDB (https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/).

PostgreSQL for example, do all development and review in a mailing list like you do, but has https://commitfest.postgresql.org/28/ that tells you exactly on what people are currently working and what is the status of the patches.

While I absolutely appreciate pass a lot, and find this mailing list very active and helpful, can you tell what two patches I sent that fixed issues that *completely* broke pass on my systems?

A bug tracker (which can be used in foss, even when using cgit) would give the answer immediately and I wouldn’t be afraid that those patches will be forgotten and stay forever in the mailing list archive without being ever committed.


Cheers,
Rémi
