How can email alone replace GitHub? Email with something like GitHub (like sourcehut) maybe but "no custom software" definitely not.

Git was designed for patches (diffs) to be sent in email. That’s how many people used it before GitHub.

I know about git-send-email. But you still need some kind of website for project info and code (unless you only wanna give out your code on request via email) and a patch/bug tracker if you want your project to be approachable. Larger projects and business users might also want CI.
