FPNGs are monolithic data/program artifacts with Schnorr signatures to mitigate risk of combining data/programs. Today I'm trying an push toolchain that uses hooks, but doesn't duplicate the code that I'm already pushing to my repos on https://floppypng.com, which is on an FPNG.

We should all get used to no longer saying "GitHub" but "Microsoft AI GitHub" just so it's clearer where your code lies and for what purpose.

People should leave GitHub and move to CodeBerg — It is GIT, but in Germany, Europe, for better digital sovereignty, privacy, and no AI.

Git 2.53 provides faster insights into the repository structure with 'git repo structure'. However, to better understand this, it is helpful to be more familiar with the inner workings of Git. That is why we have expanded our tutorial to include Git data and storage models: https://www.python4data.science/en/latest/productive/git/advanced/internals.html

How do we get more open source projects away from GitHub, towards e.g. Codeberg or Forgejo?

I guess contributing to Forgejo is one thing, or specifically contributing to projects by helping them migrate? Bring it up in discussions and issues? Donations?

Vil du selv vil hoste dit Git-repository, så er frontend'en Forgejo en mulighed. Softwaren er netop blevet opdateret til v14.

Det er f.eks blevet muligt bedre at filtrere søgeresultater, file-editoren blevet skiftet ud med CodeMirror og så er der kommet flere muligheder for at styre pull requests.
Derudover er der

Wait, so has a 😱

git add --interactive (https://git-scm.com/docs/git-add#_interactive_mode) opens up an interactive prompt allowing one to review, revert, update, patch, and edit changes to the repository. I mean, yeah, it’s not really a REPL (proper REPL is much more!) but an interactive interface is nice nonetheless!

I doubt any person I know actually knows and uses that, so I might as well be the first.

Have you ever wondered how to pronounce 'Immich', 'Dawarich', or 'Forgejo'? Me too. So I did some research and wrote a post about how to pronounce them -- and a handful of other software names that are commonly mispronounced.

Let me know if I missed any!
