In another installment of getting to know how we @opencommit think about things... we've published a policy on #AI
Read it here: https://docs.opencommit.eu/policies/artificial-intelligence/
The Context# AI, and especially LLMs like ChatGPT, are just about everywhere nowadays. Companies are integrating LLMs into things where many people don’t need or even want it. All those LLMs also need to be fed training data. Public Open Source repositories like those on Github are a prime candidate. How We Think About This# While the OpenCommit Foundation acknowledges the many benefits brought by AI in general and in software development in particular, we also see the many negative sides and its pitfalls.
We just enabled push mirrors on https://opencommit.eu
Pull mirrors will remain disabled in order to protect against abuse.
Does OpenCommit have #actions?
Yes, but..
We're *currently* not providing runners *yet*. Since we're still a small platform, we currently ask our users to host their own runners somewhere.
We do have an example of how you might do that using #docker #compose: https://opencommit.eu/opencommit/exampleRunnerUsingCompose
Hi! 👋 We realize #opencommit is still quite new and unknown to many, so in an effort to let people know how we think about various topics, the #foundation is publishing #policy documents.
They're intended as "single A4" style explanations in a structured format. We'll give some context, how we think, what to expect and what we expect from users...
The first topic is: why we enforce #2FA
see: https://docs.opencommit.eu/policies/2fa/
If you have any suggestions for a topic, please let us know! 😀
The Context# OpenCommit is a code hosting platform. That means accounts are not just profiles, they are keys. Keys to: repositories, releases, issue trackers, project roadmaps, CI tokens and integrations, maintainership, trust, and reputation. In the broader ecosystem, account takeovers are one of the most common ways projects get compromised. Sometimes it’s dramatic (malicious releases, backdoors). Often it’s mundane (spam, credential stuffing or opportunistic abuse for example). Either way, the impact isn’t contained to one person. When an account is compromised, communities lose time, users lose trust, and maintainers lose sleep.
OpenCommit Foundation chooses Soverin as its email partner!
For our git hosting at opencommit.eu, we were looking for a partner that is not only technically strong but also shares the same values: privacy, transparency, open standards, and digital sovereignty.
With Soverin, our email is handled on European servers. This ensures our email infrastructure now aligns as perfectly with our mission as our platform itself.
