Get in touch with @gitattributes? about gitattributes HOT 10 CLOSED

Hi, so you would like to transfer this repo into the https://github.com/gitattributes org?

We can setup permissions so you will still be the owner.

from gitattributes.

I'd humbly suggest you both be Owner peoples of the entire Organization that way there's two Owners just like GitHub recommends: 🤷‍♂️

To ensure that no one will lose access to a project, we recommend that at least two people within each organization have the owner role.

holy hell gitattributes/gitattributes real 🎉

Hi, author of the gitattributes.com website here (formerly gitattributes.io).

The website is using gitattributes from this repository - although a quite outdated version at the moment. I forked the repo to make sure upstream changes won't break the website.

The official source for attributes is this repo and I never made a claim about the fork to be an official version. I would not read too much into it.

from gitattributes.

Thanks for answering my question! You're right I read too much into it because the gitattributes.io domain looked to official lmao 😅

@alexkaratarakis would it make sense to transfer this repo to the much more "cool name" @gitattributes org?

Sidenote: I think you can use the ref: abcdef123 or whatever option to lock in a specific version 😜 is your repo open to prs or is it pseudo-archived?

from gitattributes.

Would be nice to use that name, if @jozefizso is ok with providing the name.

I forked the repo to make sure upstream changes won't break the website.

Orthogonal to any repo transfers, have you considered an automated unit test that ensures the website won't break @jozefizso ? Would be happy to incorporate it as a merge-blocking check and then the website can point to the "main" repo of gitattributes (regardless of what that ends up being) while also allowing the website to be always in sync.

from gitattributes.

Thank you! As a long-time && active maintainer, I think adding @Richienb as well would make sense.

any updates on the transferrence stuffs? still hoping https://github.com/gitattributes/gitattributes can be a thing!

from gitattributes.

I have been pretty busy, hoping to get to this soon!

from gitattributes.

Sorry for the delay.
The transfer is now complete. :)

Relevant PRs:

1. #202
2. Richienb/gitattributes-generator#4
3. gitattributes/gitattributes.com#17

According to the transfer docs the old url will redirect to the new one, therefore links won't be broken.
