A few notable projects where the canonical repo is still on SourceForge instead of moving to Github:
- LAME mp3 : https://sourceforge.net/projects/lame/ https://sourceforge.net/projects/lame/
- KeePass : https://sourceforge.net/projects/keepass/ https://sourceforge.net/projects/keepass/
(Some people keep asking the KeePass developer to move to Github but he doesn't want to because "I'm not going to maintain a version control system." : https://sourceforge.net/p/keepass/discussion/329221/thread/97110c29/ https://sourceforge.net/p/keepass/discussion/329221/thread/9...)
Any other notable examples besides those 2?
- pitaj 3y agoNuts that any significant open source project would choose to not use any kind of version control, especially nowadays.
- eep_social 3y agoSourceForge offers hosting of git, mercurial, and svn repos. I found a compressed bundle of the latest KeePass source in a few seconds of clicking. Can you clarify? Edit: or downvote, sure!
- criddell 3y agoIf you click through the keepass links one or two levels, you eventually find that the keepass developer apparently doesn’t use version control software. They weren’t saying SourceForge doesn’t offer it.

- orhmeh09 3y agoWell, the whole matter with "xz" this week would not have happened without public DVCS.
- intelkishan 3y agoXAMPP is on still on SourceForge, but I am not sure if it's still widely used.
- lelanthran 3y ago> Any other notable examples besides those 2? Lazarus, I think.

- pquki4 3y agoI remember every time I need to get the tigerVNC Viewer I had to go to sourceforge.
