Time to discuss self-hosted alternatives to GitHub!

First, has anyone simply put a bare git repo on a server somewhere, pushed via SSH, and called it a day?

Do you really need more than a remote to push to and pull from, for your personal projects? If you've tried this, what obstacles did you encounter and what features did you miss?

Thanks to @s3phy again for helping me understand another area where IPv6 is broken in Linux desktop networking configuration tools: connecting to a SSH server to create a SOCKS proxy using the NetworkManager SSH plugin. That thing only checks if the gateway address is a valid IPv4 address

I reported the issue here: https://github.com/danfruehauf/NetworkManager-ssh/issues/130

It gives me great, great pleasure to announce that #Bignole, my fork of #Concierge is finally published!

https://pypi.org/project/bignole/

Do you use #SSH a lot? Is your .ssh/config complex and thousands of lines long?
Try Bignole!

By using a template engine (jinja2 and mako are available), the SSH config I maintain is less than a third of the .ssh/config file that's generated!

J’ai le grand, l’immense plaisir de vous annoncer que #Bignole, mon fork de #Concierge est enfin publié !
https://pypi.org/project/bignole/

Vous utilisez beaucoup #SSH ? Votre .ssh/config est d’une complexité sans nom et fait des milliers de lignes ?
Essayez Bignole !
Avec l’utilisation d’un moteur de template (jinja2 ou mako), la config SSH que je maintiens fait moins d’un tiers du fichier .ssh/config qui est généré !

This article shows that DSA has finally been removed
