ARC Investigations
ARC (Advance Reconnaissance Crew) is a part of Infra & Releng Team that is doing investigation of upcoming big infrastructure projects in Fedora.
Git forge evaluation
Description:
The investigation involved validating user stories received from multiple subprojects and SIGs within Fedora Project to understand how well GitLab CE and Forgejo fared with the needs of the community, under Fedora Council’s direction. It also involved a limited research on the resource requirements for platform migration along with the changes in the ecosystem applications.
