@mahmoudajawad @RL_Dane I love sourcehut but one might need a while to get used to it coming from Github or similar services. There are no Pull/Merge Requests but patches. There is an issue tracker and build tools and so on, but they are more separated and flexible.

I think a big problem (and I'm saying this as a total novice to the source code revision management game) is that != , and that is causing some real confusion.

Once again, has managed to and break both compatibility, and the mental concept of what git actually is. And they didn't even create GitHub, although I wonder if it was more of a vanilla Git service before they bought it out.

@RL_Dane @mahmoudajawad GitHub was already the way it is when MS bought it. I'm not sure if Pull Requests are GitHubs invention but they where for sure the biggest source of adoption.

@RL_Dane @mahmoudajawad @Codeberg Pull Requests are definitely not exclusive to GitHub. They can be found in many suites like Gitlab, Gitea, Codeberg and others. They sometimes have different names. I think Gitlab is calling them Merge Requests for example.
