Git as a Storage

  Distributed, offline-first bug tracker embedded in git, with bridges

git-bug, the one mentioned in the article here, has some documentation on its README of how well its importer/exporter tools support Github, Gitlab, Jira, and Launchpad: https://github.com/MichaelMure/git-bug

Most of the other such tools I've seen barely have the resources to import/export a single such API. git-issue only has Github import it looks like. https://github.com/dspinellis/git-issue

There's perceval which is designed to be a generic archival tool and supports lots of APIs, but only dumps them to source-specific formats and would still need a lot of work if you tried to use issues from different APIs together: https://github.com/chaoss/grimoirelab-perceval

  Run automated tests against a range of Git commits and keep track of the results

> I thought it was a neat article

I think the article talks about the "What" part of the problem, but the actual code is much more interesting in the "How" sense.

Like the git-ref stuff makes sense as you read the code

https://github.com/ligurio/git-test/blob/master/bin/git-test...

There was a similar set of additions to svn in the past with "svn propedit" in the workflows which I used in a previous workplace.

It was not pretty, because it was like embedding JIRA into svn - but it meant machines could flip state to state with commits during build+test and restart from that point without an independent DB to track the "current state" & people with commit access could nudge a stuck build out without losing "who did what".

> I think you can get the wiki with plain old 'git' ? I forget ...

This is correct. The wiki for a repo is accessible as a separate repository named with a suffix of “.wiki”.

So if user foo has a repo bar with an associated wiki, and the repo URL is https://github.com/foo/bar then you can clone the repo and the wiki respectively over SSH by:

    git clone [email protected]:foo/bar.git

  Git Source Code Mirror - This is a publish-only repository but pull requests can be turned into patches to the mailing list via GitGitGadget (https://gitgitgadget.github.io/). Please follow Documentation/SubmittingPatches procedure for any of your improvements.

  

the core of cat-file.c is quite short. i think you could get the random access you want with minimal effort. ideally, upstream support for --offset and --count or what not to git; a lot of people would benefit.

https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/builtin/cat-file.c

you can absolutely make tools to expand out & load git repos into content stores. it's going to depend on the content store how you do that.
