Should We Expand Gitingest Support for Additional Git Hosts? #118

@filipchristiansen

Description

@filipchristiansen

The recent PR #117 improved our domain-agnostic URL parsing and extended support from GitHub to include GitLab, Bitbucket, and Gitea. This enhancement was achieved by iteratively guessing the domain for a given user/repo, and supports the "URL trick".

In Issue #11, several other Git providers that we might consider supporting were suggested:

  • gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine
  • gitlab.gnome.org/World/Rust/poppler-rs
  • salsa.debian.org/public
  • cygwin.com/git.html
  • savannah.gnu.org/git/?group=coreutils

Question for the Community:
Is expanding support to these (or other) Git providers a feature that would benefit you? If you have a use case that requires support for a specific Git host, please share the details and mention which host(s) you need.

Next Steps:
Until there's clear demand from the community, I propose we put this expansion on hold. However, if you know of additional Git hosts that could be valuable to support, let us know here.

Your feedback will help us prioritize new features based on actual user needs. Thank you!
