2024 Git Forge Evaluation

Vol. I – Fedora Council 2024 Hackfest

During the Council’s February 2024 hackfest, we discussed the future of Fedora’s git forge – that is, the platform Fedora uses for version control and tracking for packages, source code, documentation, and more. This topic has been around for quite some time. If you are just coming into this conversation, or would like a refresher, #git-forge-future is a good place to start.

Instead of one huge post, the Fedora Council divided the follow-ups from our hack-fest into a mini-series of posts throughout April that will cover all the topics we discussed and made decisions on. In each post, we will walk through one core topic, and share our discussion and thought process on how we reached our outcomes. The first in this series, because why not start strong 🙂 , is an update on our git forge evaluation. Read on for important information.

2023 Year in Review: Community Platform Engineering (CPE)

February 27, 2024 / zlopez / 0 Comments

This is a summary of the work done on initiatives by the Community Platform Engineering (CPE) Team. Every quarter, the CPE team works together with CentOS Project and Fedora Project community leaders and representatives to choose projects that will be being worked upon in that quarter. The CPE team is then split into multiple smaller sub-teams that will work on the chosen initiatives and day-to-day work that needs to be done. Some of the sub-teams are dedicated to the continuous efforts in the team whilst some are created only for the initiative purposes.

EPEL Survey Results 2022 -2023

December 18, 2023 / dherrera / Comments Off

The EPEL team that operates as part of the Red Hat Community Platform Engineering (CPE) group, has ran two surveys over the years 2022 and 2023, with the purpose of understanding how Fedora and EPEL community members use and contribute to EPEL, and their overall satisfaction with EPEL. The results of these surveys will help us prioritize our future work and plan activities for the growth of the project, and since we believe that this results might be interesting for the wider audience, we decided to share them here.

Pagure Exporter is now available

November 16, 2023 / zlopez / 7 Comments

Pagure Exporter is now available in the Fedora package repositories and PyPI. The Pagure Exporter tool enables the migration of a Pagure repository (including metadata and issues) to a GitLab repository. Install pagure-exporter from Fedora Linux repositories or PyPI to get started.

With most of the projects used in the Fedora Project community moving away from Pagure to the Fedora Project’s namespace on GitLab.com, Justin W. Flory proposed an initiative to the Community Platform Engineering team. The objective was to investigate and develop a self-service tool capable of helping contributors to the community migrate their project assets from Pagure to GitLab as reliably as possible, similar to the pagure-importer tool from Trac in 2015.

After investigation and development of a prototype by ARC investigators, Michal Konecny and Akashdeep Dhar as well as a backlog refinement process, the project was scoped for implementation as a part of the Fedora Infrastructure and Release Engineering work for Q4 2023 by the team’s then-product owner, Aoife Moloney.

After around a month and a half of designing, developing and testing by Akashdeep Dhar, the Pagure Exporter tool is now published for use in Fedora Linux repositories and PyPI.
