First-ever Gitea pull request from a remote instance!!! 🎉🥳

git.exozy.me/Ta180m/Hello-worl…

I've been waiting for this moment for months now!

The code hasn't been pushed to gitea.com/Ta180m/gitea yet since it's incredibly messy, but I'll clean it up tomorrow and also submit a draft pull request to upstream Gitea.

(Technical implementation information: gitea.com/Ta180m/gitea/issues/…)

A pull request submitted on my Hello-world repository by the user test@test.exozy.me from a remote Gitea instance.

Hello from test.exozy.me!

Sounds cool, even if I am really not very familiar with git :D - probably I will be more and more in the future

But you do have an awesome Gitea server at git.trom.tf, and it'll be nice if all of the #gitea servers can federate with each other 🙂

I'm sure you're familiar with opening git issues to report bugs and such, you do that a lot with FOSS programs like kdenlive, Friendica, etc. Now if federating between gitea servers are possible then you would be able to use your account on git.trom.tf to open new issues on projects that are on other gitea servers like codeberg.org without having an account there. And users from codeberg would also be able to contribute to projects on your server 😁

Also, when Gitea federates with the Fediverse, you will probably be able to open issues from your fedi account, and will need a gitea account only to manage your own projects

This is awesome! Federated PRs is something I've wanted for quite a while

Can/should i update my Gitea instance to this version until it gets merged to Giteaʼs main? Or will it ever get merged, or is this a fork and Gitea main will go a different route?

My code at gitea.com/Ta180m/gitea will eventually get merged into Gitea main, but for now I'd only run the Gitea fork on experimental instances, since it can modify your database in unexpected ways. Also, have backups!

I feel like the real hard work will be federated collaborators, organizations, and the UI. Everything else is pretty simple in comparison.

We're using the forgefed.org/ open spec, but unfortunately GitLab so far has been reluctant to implement it. Maybe they'll look into it once the Gitea federation implementation is done?
