I saw this a while ago and wanted to contribute so I found my way to their source. Unfortunately, this was my first interaction with SourceHut, the site they use as their central point of development, and found it completely unintuitive. After 15 minutes of fumbling around I basically just said "I'll try it again later" and never got back to it. This might just be because this was my first encounter with the site.

I didn't even know about SourceHut. It seems like the weird cousin of Github. But I'm also a Github fan boiiiii.

You just use git-send-email[1] to send a patch to their mailing list[2]. Project page is here[3].

we keep a mirror there if you prefer to use github (https://github.com/zrythm/zrythm https://github.com/zrythm/zrythm) but we don't actually use github for development if you really want to use github pull requests instead of sending patches feel free to do that and I'll still look at them but we recommend patches via email because it's an open and standard system

  Just wanted to say that I personally really appreciate the setup, workflow and the way you are organized! It looks like you are really caring about building upon open tech both in development and communication. Actually made me very curious. Same for the choice of dependencies and the documentation in place, was surprised with how easy it was to compile myself. Hadn't had the time to give the program itself a full try yet, but I'm actually looking forward to do try some recordings with it next week.

  I do wish we had an open standard for things like issues, pull requests, etc. that was a little more "featureful" than plain email. At least platforms like Gitlab, Gitea, etc. are self-hostable and open source, which is a start.

    ForgeFed[1] seems to be an attempt in that direction built on top of ActivityPub[2], but (from my very brief impression) seems to be stuck in something of a development hell. I’m willing to believe it’ll get done at some point, but whether it’ll get traction—or how a project of this sort should even go about that in general—is anybody’s guess.

Were you unable to find the git URL for cloning the repository? Or was it non-coding contributions you were interested in?

Assume you found the code by clicking on “tree”? https://man.sr.ht/ https://man.sr.ht/
