Long story short, gitweb on sourceware is missing two features I do really appreciate: 1. Tag/release feeds, i.e. being able to track new tags via RSS/Atom reader. Gitweb only supports 'all commits' feed. I suppose it's not that bad with relatively low number of commits but then if all projects... I suppose you get where this is going. 2. Snapshots. I mean, I just spend 15 minutes trying to find a way to grab a newer-than-release tree in a tarball from sourceware and there doesn't seem to be any. Setting up a mirror on GitHub would provide the missing features and also increase project's visibility. But anything with fully- featured web frontend would work, e.g. cgit, gitlab... -- Best regards, Michał Górny
