README.md

This repo is a public read-only git mirror of openSUSE sources from build.opensuse.org.

Advantages are:

  • easy to do full-text search
  • offline access to history
  • Git blame is fast, both online and offline.
  • distributed repo
  • increased visibility of changes
  • also tracks prjconf changes
  • ability to download patch files
  • cryptograpically signed commits to impede tampering with history
  • even works on Thursdays (when we do maintenance of our infrastructure)
  • does not carry tarballs and other large binaries, so the whole repo is still below 7GB
