  Description     : Distributed bug tracker embedded in Git

git-bug is a distributed bug tracker embedded in git. It uses git's
internal storage so no files are added in your project.

As you would do with commits and branches, you can push your bugs to
the same git remote you are already using to collaborate with other
people.

==

I've been maintaining bugs-everywhere (BE) in Debian for a while now,
which accomplishes a similar goal, but with bugs stored in branches
(or in files? i forgot). In any case, BE is unmaintained now and this
looks like a promising alternative, particularly with future two-way
integration with upstream bugtrackers (e.g. GitHub import for now).

It probably has (too many) golang dependencies that need to be bundled
and all that usual stuff.

Golang team maintenance, most likely. Documented here to share it with
the Debian community and make sure there's no work duplicated.

I would have loved to see this one in debian as well!  May be someone
from Debian Go Team could have paved the way

Hi,

An update on this RFP, since the original details are out of date:

* Package name    : git-bug
  Version         : 0.11.0
* URL             : https://github.com/git-bug/git-bug
                    (moved from github.com/MichaelMure/git-bug)
* License         : GPL-3+ <check against upstream LICENSE>
  Programming Lang: Go

Upstream is actively maintained. Besides the CLI, git-bug now has an
interactive terminal UI, a web UI and bridges that import and export
issues from GitHub, GitLab, Jira and Launchpad.

There is now a concrete user in Debian: b4 0.16 (the kernel
mailing-list workflow tool) has a "b4 bugs" subcommand built on
git-bug. b4 tracks bug reports from lore.kernel.org threads as
git-bug bugs stored alongside the project repository. It needs
git-bug >= 0.10.1. Its Python binding, python3-ezgb, is already in
Debian, but the subcommand can't work without the git-bug binary.

I've filed #1150827 against b4 and marked it as blocked by
this bug. I've also filed #1150829 against python3-ezgb and marked it as
blocked by
this bug.


It would still fit the Debian Go Packaging Team. The Go library
dependencies still need to be checked for which ones are already in
the archive.

Cheers!

Chris
