Did someone fork the GH repo before it was taken down?
- Lammy 3y agoBoom https://archive.org/details/yuzu.7z https://archive.org/details/yuzu.7z (archived by me from a git mirror; all git remotes removed before zipping)
- isoprophlex 3y agoSeems to be up still... Edit: he's dead, Jim
- wingmanjd 3y agoRepo URL is now dead.
- isoprophlex 3y agoWhoa, cloned it just in time, with literally minutes to spare!
- xingped 3y agoShare if you can!
- sleirsgoevy 3y ago``` git clone https://github.com/irfanhakim-as/yuzu-mainline https://github.com/irfanhakim-as/yuzu-mainline git fetch origin 537296095ab24eddcb196b5ef98004f91de9c8c2 ``` It seems that GitHub still serves the commit history through the existing forks of the repo. According to archive.org, this commit corresponds to the last release of yuzu-mainline before the repo takedown: http://web.archive.org/web/20240304185516/https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu-mainline/releases/tag/mainline-0-1734 http://web.archive.org/web/20240304185516/https://github.com...
- kenmacd 3y agoIf you already have a copy of the original repo, add this as another remote with: ``` git remote add irfanhakim-as https://github.com/irfanhakim-as/yuzu-mainline https://github.com/irfanhakim-as/yuzu-mainline git fetch irfanhakim-as 537296095ab24eddcb196b5ef98004f91de9c8c2 ``` Then if you want the commit to look like the latest one for the original repo edit the file `.git/packed-refs`. Mine now looks like: ``` # pack-refs with: peeled fully-peeled sorted 537296095ab24eddcb196b5ef98004f91de9c8c2 refs/remotes/origin/master ``` (Be careful with raw editing git files. There might be a more 'official' way to do it, but this worked for me)
- mmebane 3y agoThey started deleting repos a couple of minutes ago. I checked a lot of links and they were in the Internet Archive. I'm sure there are plenty of forks of the main repo.
- yuzufan 3y agoCloned it a couple days ago. When you find a mirror, you can look for this commit, and know that if the commit hash matches it is probably a legit copy of the repo up until that point at least commit dc94882c9062ab88d3d5de35dcb8731111baaea2 (HEAD -> master) Merge: 30567a590 fc6a87bba Author: liamwhite <liamwhite@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Tue Feb 27 12:26:26 2024 -0500 Merge pull request #13135 from german77/hid-interface service: hid: Migrate HidServer to new IPC

- BHSPitMonkey 3y agoYour clone seems to be 4 commits behind the version I'm seeing in most mirrors, which has the following HEAD: commit 15e6e48bef0216480661444a8d8b348c1cca47bb (HEAD -> master, origin/ma ster, origin/HEAD) Merge: dc94882c9 2f57c5a0e Author: Narr the Reg <juangerman-13@hotmail.com> Date: Fri Mar 1 01:57:00 2024 -0600 Merge pull request #13198 from zhaobot/tx-update-20240301020652 Update translations (2024-03-01)
- chatmasta 3y agoFYI, forks don't survive DMCA purges. You need to clone a repo and then push it to a new repository.
- KomoD 3y agoYuzu deleted the repos themselves so all the forks still exist for now, just with another upstream. (in the case of the main repo: roblabla/yuzu) But yeah they'll be gone soon (making a repo without fork won't help either.)
- chatmasta 3y ago> making a repo without fork won't help either It'll definitely get purged, but I think in this case the rightsholder needs to submit a separate DMCA request. Regardless, if you want the code, cloning it to a local storage medium is always the most robust option :)
- KomoD 3y ago> but I think in this case the rightsholder needs to submit a separate DMCA request. No you can actually do multiple in one request. > Regardless, if you want the code, cloning it to a local storage medium is always the most robust option :) 100%, that is the way to go.
- KomoD 3y agoSoftware Heritage has it archived. https://archive.softwareheritage.org/browse/search/?q=github.com%2Fyuzu-emu%2F&with_visit=true&with_content=true https://archive.softwareheritage.org/browse/search/?q=github...
- xingped 3y agoHadn't heard of this site before but thank you so much!
- justinclift 3y agoThere look to be an awful lot of forks created in the last week: https://github.com/roblabla/yuzu/forks?include=active&page=1&period=2y&sort_by=last_updated https://github.com/roblabla/yuzu/forks?include=active&page=1... Considering the ongoing attacks against GitHub whereby people are creating repos with malicious code, it's probably wise to be bloody careful of any of these yuzu forks. :( :( :(
- BHSPitMonkey 3y agoI see several on GitLab.com with identical commit histories, for what it's worth.
- justinclift 3y agoCool, that could be a good reference point. :)
- npteljes 3y agoJust to add my two cents, software repositories like Ubuntu's still have the thing, with the source and the build readily downloadable. Not the latest, but still. https://packages.ubuntu.com/mantic/yuzu https://packages.ubuntu.com/mantic/yuzu
