I wonder how long it's going to take before gogs and gitea get merged, just like it has happened in the past with major forks , nodejs + iojs being one example.

- benley 10y agoPersonally, I tend to consider that to be a wildly successful outcome for an OSS project fork. The project community continues to exist, conflicts get resolved (hopefully amicably), users benefit, developers benefit. Everyone wins!
- carwyn 10y agoThey've split and merged before. This is the second time gitea has forked.
- 0942v8653 10y agoWhat did gitea contribute the last time they merged?
- bedonnant 10y agoI think it was at a time when the original maintainer kept silent for a while. When he came back online, gitea stepped back.
- MetalMatze 10y agoExactly, but then he went silent again for over a month in December. We will continue development of Gitea, even now that he's back.

- ahacker15 10y agoYep. The first time was until the owner came back, but he refused to merge the changes on Gogs. The community stopped with Gitea when this happened. This time, the community patience ended, and Gitea will continue on its own way.
- MetalMatze 10y agoWe will never merge, unless Gogs gets merged into Gitea. We won't merge into Gogs because then only one person will be left as an owner which was the reason for the fork in the first place.
