Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Gitlab Gitaly project now supports the SHA-256 hashing algorithm
Clicking through to https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly yields
> Gitaly is a Git RPC service for handling all the git calls made by GitLab
So I think this means that a major piece of gitlab now supports sha256 git repos? But probably not everything and therefore we can't actually push sha256 git repos to gitlab yet?

heads up Github host key issue
With https transport, the webserver can make a simple database call (or hit a cache) to check your authorization, and then make your git operation call. No exec need.
- makefiles in stages
- Does core create a git repo in /etc?
- Pihole running on VM constantly running out of space due to FTL copies in git packfile

magit + libgit2
There are things where libgit2 is faster than git, and there are things libgit2 can't do. Here is a brief note from another discussion:
-
GitLab plans to delete dormant projects from free accounts: Hopes to save a quarter of hosting costs by binning repos that haven't been touched for a year
Not easily, because their storage backend requires computing.

Gitly: A light and fast GitHub/Gitlab alternative written in V lang (pre-alpha)
You might have trademark issues with Gitlab's Gitaly https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly

Any idea if this is realistically doable in rails?
Yeah, they use a thing they built themselves called gitaly: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly

Gitlab Duo
Since the relevant code appears to be in the "ee" directory <https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/v16.11.0-ee/ee/l...> and is not present in the foss repo, I'm guessing the answer is no, at least for now. They do have a history of "releasing" features from EE back to CE but my suspicion is not for LLM stuff

Client side Git hooks 101
(Side note: Issues are usually hash-prefixed like #1234 both on GitLab and GitHub. However, commit messages must not begin with a hash, they would be considered a comment and ignored. Therefore, GitHub has introduced the alternative prefix GH- and I've contributed a similar prefix GL- to GitLab a while ago.)

BuildKit in depth: Docker's build engine explained
and its "oh, you want multi-arch, do you?" friend. While prosecuting this <https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/339567> I learned that https://hub.docker.com/layers/multiarch/qemu-user-static/7.2... actually mutates the binfmt_misc in buildx's context in order to exec the static copy of qemu in it https://github.com/multiarch/qemu-user-static/blob/v7.2.0-1/...
and, that the buildx plugin itself has some qemu magick in it, which got addressed in a minor version bump but I couldn't track down the relevant GitHub issue this second (I've flushed it from my mind, only recalling that there were a lot of actors in that tire fire)
