I'm still wondering why there isn't a bittorrent for git
- pabs3 4y agoThere was GitTorrent in 2015: https://blog.printf.net/articles/2015/05/29/announcing-gittorrent-a-decentralized-github/ https://blog.printf.net/articles/2015/05/29/announcing-gitto... https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31534936 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31534936 There are also multiple git-remote-ipfs projects on GitHub.
- mdaniel 4y agoIn some sense, this has the same problem as TFA: who is going to seed those disused repos (same problem with ipfs linked in the sibling comment, which one can pay a "pinning node" but pay)
