I'm probably preaching to the choir here, but there absolutely _needs_ to be a federated version of GitHub/GitLab.

Let me host my projects' critical infrastructure (issue tracker, PRs, private repos etc) on my own servers, while also being able to interact and socialize with the rest of the open source world.

I'll keep saying this until someone builds it - I would do it myself if I had enough time on my hands right now.

@fribbledom it'd also ideally pull any submodule dependancies to your local instance too, so if others go away your projects still live.

@mdales That's actually a fantastic idea.

@fribbledom I worry about this a lot. For any organisation with internal GitHub/gitlab I effectively manually do this to ensure I can build even if the network goes away.
