Decentralised Git Repo Sharing/Storage backed by Dat

So. Github have gone rogue. Ok, not quite, and the way I see it, it was either they got bought-out or shut-down, and I'm glad it was the former. Whatever your feelings on the above may be, it'd be nice to have a full free, open and decentralised place to collaborate on software, and other projects.

So... let's build it? Or have you already started? Fork this page on github or using Beaker Browser and add your name below plus answers to any of the questions.

Current Architecture Proposal

  • Git remote sharing over hyperdrive / dat
  • Core Repository "Portal" on dat (mirrored to http)

Work in this area

Research

Current Open Source Git repository browsers

What do we want from a code-sharing platform?

  • Searchability - should be able to search through all repos by tag/name/content
  • ?? Community Input - Portal for bug-reports. Some metric for community approval e.g. how many other people are using this, and what do they think .

What do we not want?

  • ??
