• [[push]] [[gitea]]
  • [[vera]] installed gitea this weekend; just set it up so it’s serving on https://git.anagora.org pull. Signups (username+password works just fine) open!
  • [[mirroring]] works great! simple to set up
    • I wonder how often it syncs — if often enough, this could be a good UI for [[agora bridge]]
  • [[wiki]] for each repo gets stored in a ‘hidden’ repo associated with it: add .wiki before .git in the URL to clone
• [[push]] [[systemctl]]
  • systemctl list-unit-files | grep enabled to list all enabled services (add —user for user-scoped)
    • a bit weird this isn’t… shorter? but oh well
• [[flancians]]
