| Around 2010-2015 there were a whole bunch of these distributed git bugtrackers and none of them took off. Most are completely dead. IIRC one of the biggest problems was its feature: issue state being distributed as it is, it was very easy for developers to end up with issues having different states/comments, and depending on the implementation even differed across local branches. But also in a work environment there was no place for project managers to view/create/update issues. I remember listing out 4-5 of these in the past when the topic has come up, but the only old one I can remember/find right now is https://github.com/dspinellis/git-issue Edit - Found some more using duckduckgo instead of google: * https://github.com/jashmenn/ditz (last update 12 years ago) * https://bugseverywhere.org/ (I think this was the most popular at one point) * https://github.com/marekjm/issue (this is separate from git-issue above) * A blog post from 2012 that lists these and a few others (half the links are dead): http://www.cs.unb.ca/~bremner/blog/posts/git-issue-trackers/ From the blog post, the additional ones where the links still work: * https://github.com/chilts/cil (last updated 11 years ago) * http://syncwith.us/sd/ (last updated 6 years ago) |
teams that have like anaplan and figma in their stack probably cannot use this
but for a team that would otherwise be using github issues for project mgmt, I don't think the in-git approach is awful
