Dear #lazyweb, what's the largest #cgit instance you know, in terms of hosted #git repositories?
The standing champion is http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/ , but I'm confident there are larger instances out there…

I'm not sure what the hold-up is on the public listing. I suppose this will be my last post on the matter until it's actually up.
My team in Minneapolis !minnesota is hiring. There is nothing public yet, but if you're looking, hit me up.
A bunch of our stuff is #opensource (BSD two-clause for just about everything...maybe everything), and all of it has free trials, so https://www.perforce.com/downloads and https://swarm.workshop.perforce.com/
We support products on Windows, Mac, and #Linux. Occasionally, you might see some old Solaris or BSD servers (or some other random stuff), but that really doesn't happen much.
We support #git and #Jenkins integrations, as well as #maven and a bunch of other stuff I don't ever touch, but people on my team do.
Apache knowledge would be useful, but not required. My colleague who started the same day I did doesn't really do any scripting. He's pretty much a pure server performance guy. That said, we support APIs for #ruby, #python, #js, #groovy, #perl, #java, #c++ and #php. Also, #C knowledge would be useful
Basically, if you have any cross-platform experience at all, and are technical, you'd be a good fit. -

TIL: you can configure a #git remote with multiple push URLs.
It basically allows you to push to multiple remotes at once.

no word from the customer, but I think I just solved a case that has been open for a month and a half. holy shit it feels good to have that off my back.
We still desperately need another person though.
The below doesn't mention #jenkins, but would be super useful. Any sort of programming knowledge would be useful. git knowledge needed is limited (I pretty much knew git clone when I started and don't really know much more now), although if you are a git master, that would be exceedingly useful. The Australia team tends not to specialize as much as the North American team. If you know #Chinese or #Korean that would be super useful, but not required.

@geniusmusing @brandon A lot of projects have quick instructions for the minimal #git tasks necessary to use / update their source code. Yes, overall, it is too complicated, and is really suited for the largest projects, not small to medium sized projects (which is why I prefer #fossil myself).
