@Codeberg so, about /me threatening to switch off #IPv4 during #FOSDEM and thus taking down #GitHub... Look what they did two days after my toot...

https://bgp.tools/prefix/2606:50c0:c0de::/48#whois

They're not reachable yet, but that's progress. No matter what, I will only have #IPv6 on the @fosdem default network.

Quite interesting remark by @struberg on the Java champions mailing list about #Maven #Central being a target of #AI scrapers

> Most of the jars also have source attached, and this is a highly interesting target for all kinds of AI research.

Never thought about it that way, but for sure, there's a ton of stuff there predating #GitHub which has been already "harvested"…

@nixCraft thanks!

@RichiH @Codeberg youcexpect #GitHub to ever get #IPv6 support?

You'd rather see them launch an #OnionService instead and be natively reachable via @torproject / #Tor…

Hey #GitHub, it's roughly half a year until #FOSDEM.

As a reminder, I will disable the #NAT64-based #IPv4 fallback on the default network next year. The default network will be #IPv6-only.

I do note that @Codeberg does support IPv6.

I don't know what's more stupid: #OpenSSH using different authentication flow depending on whether you have a `.pub` file in addition to the private key or not, or #GitHub suddenly starting to reject one of the two valid RFC 4252 workflows.

https://thorsell.io/2026/07/21/github-ssh-keys.html

#SSH

I hope that @Codeberg members vote to exclude #GenAI projects.

It's a justifiable stance that will enhance the platform IMO, leaving #GitHub to wallow in sloppy, degrading projects along with those who deserve to be shunned for their judgement and broken values.

BTW #Codeberg is an EU based non profit that provides free git hosting and CI. But if you pay a small fee to be a member you get to have a say in decisions.

I just got this bill from #microsoft for #github usage. See if you can spot what is ridiculous about this bill.

Screenshot of my “account usage” page at GitHub. It lists a bunch of “Included usage” items, each of which is zero dollars. They’re things like 2,000 Actions minutes .5 GB Actions storage 10 GB Git LFS storage Then it says Free usage: 100% off per month Zero dollars and two cents. The only thing on the list that explicitly says one hundred percent discount has a non-zero charge.

I've oft had copyleft v. non-copyleft debates—usually heated—in public since USENIX ATC '98.
The *argument* wastes time. Sadly, #FOSS has 2 entrenched policy camps: 1 ultra-libertarian& 1 socialist-democratic;the philosophies are mutually exclusive.
Do: Advocate copyleft! Criticize billionaire-class(eg: #Microsoft &its #Github) on their 25yr anti-copyleft campaign! Write #copyleft sw! Fork non-copyleft sw!
Don't: have YA of these threads!

#GitHub #Rant #UXFail #Cybersecurity

Hm, interesting. #ansible's get_url seems to bomb with a #GitHub URL on #FreeBSD 15.1 that works fine on 15.0. 🤔

Later this week #GitHub introduces a way to limit how many pull requests users without write access can have open at one time... As a way to combat heaps of low-quality PRs.

I'll start out trying with this set to 2 for #curl.

"Restrict how many pull requests users without write access can have open at one time"

Huh?

"Access to the coderbyheart/azure-functions-core-tools repository has been disabled by GitHub staff due to a terms of service violation"

This was a fork of an open-source project, which is now also gone: https://GitHub.com/Azure/azure-functions-core-tools: Command line tools for Azure Functions

A nice reminder that you don't own shit on #GitHub.

Did #GitHub change something about subdomains for Pages recently? We currently have cheriot.org as the domain for the CHERIoT-Platform org, and rust.cheriot.org for the cheri-rust project within that. I'm trying to set up a subdomain for publishing our API docs with doxygen, but it's now not letting me. Their docs say that you can't use an apex domain and a subdomain, but I have an existing configuration that does exactly that!

EDIT: It's even more confusing. It does let me do what I want, but it also generates an error.

From the linked thread:

"Just to be clear:

Microsoft’s #GitHub was compromised when a Microsoft developer using Microsoft VSCode installed a rogue extension from Microsoft’s VSCode extension library, which is moderated and hosted by Microsoft.!

So, #GitHub has been hacked.

post from github on May 20th, 2026: We are sharing additional details regarding our investigation into unauthorized access to GitHub's internal repositories. Yesterday we detected and contained a compromise of an employee device involving a poisoned VS Code extension. We removed the malicious extension version, isolated the endpoint, and began incident response immediately. Our current assessment is that the activity involved exfiltration of GitHub-internal repositories only. The attacker’s current claims of ~3,800 repositories are directionally consistent with our investigation so far.

TIL: you can use `workflow_run` on #GitHub actions to run them after another workflow ran ... previously I would invokle the second workflow from the first one. This makes it much more flexible!

Can someone explain why everyone is suddenly moving to #Codeberg and not #GitLab?

I know I'm kinda late to ask this, but why is Codeberg better than GitLab these days? What happened that it become the preferred choice for people moving off of #GitHub?

Call me impressed: #codeberg pages are slightly less annoying to setup than #github #pages 😎

What’s gone wrong at #GitHub https://leaddev.com/software-quality/whats-gone-wrong-at-github

Flaky GitHub Pull Request builds are an annoying reality in many projects. Just when you think a change is complete and good to merge, you are greeted with an ❌. To unblock your PR, you need to rerun lengthy test pipeline just because of one rogue test.

If you have a Java project on GitHub, TestLens can help you:

https://testlens.app/blog/2027/05/07/reuse-test-results/

Drop me a message, if you would like to join or beta program.

#Java #JUnit #Gradle #Maven #GitHub

TestLens control buttons in a comment on your GitHub Pull Request. They offer a 'Only rerun the tests that failed or were muted before' checkbox to activate before triggering a rerun through the 'Rerun job' checkbox.

AFAIK neither #GitHub, nor #Gitlab or @Codeberg provide a way to ensure that no single owner can move a repo to another organization.
