    What's wrong with Gitorious?

    +
      +
    • + They have completely sold us out + to a company who's main business model is proprietary software. +
    • +
    • + Gitorious is now owned by GitLab. GitLab is essentially the same as GitHub; there is a + free (libre) version of GitLab, but this is bait-and-switch for their so-called enterprise + version which is proprietary software. +
    • +
    • + The GitLab site itself also runs on a proprietary version of GitLab. GitLab has the same + rotten attitude + as GitHub when it comes to free software. +
    • +
    • + GitLab is permissively licensed, which means that it completely lacks copyleft. + Anyone (including the main GitLab upstream) can re-release a proprietary version + and completely refuse to give out source code. +
    • +
    + +

    + Gitorious now simply uses Free Software for its own benefit, releasing source code under a free license + only when suited to it's business goals; they are quite happy to violate the rights of their users, for profit + (since they are now part of GitLab, which has been doing so for quite some time). +

    + +

    + By contrast, the project adheres strictly to the goals of the Free Software movement, which + seeks to eliminate proprietary software to the point where all software is free. +

    + +

    + The proprietary developments in GitLab are unacceptable to + the project. Users and developers of + free software + are strongly advised not to use GitLab or Gitorious, for any of their projects. +

    + +
    + +
    + +

    Where should I host and share my code?

    +

    + Here are a few examples: +

    +
      +
    • + Host your own repositories. This is exactly what libreboot does, + hosted on a machine that is running libreboot! You can use a frontend like + gitweb + for easy viewing by others. +
