Create new GitLab project group: wmgmc
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Path to group: repos/wmgmc

Rationale: I want to request for a group for repositories of WMGMC Technical Group, including tracking repositories (i.e. forks) of software we are using and source code for our own bots, etc.

We do have a self-hosted Forgejo instance but it will be danger if we lost the OCI image and the forgejo cannot be started, because all of our OCI images are stored in the container registry provided by forgejo. Also, moving some projects to GitLab makes it easier to collaborate with others.

Who should have access:

  • @XtexChooser (xtex)
  • @Yiming (it seems that they don't have a GitLab account now? I (xtex) will add them later once they created one)

Event Timeline

IHMO you should just be able to use /repos instead of complicating the structure even further, we have various chapters and UGs there already. And this is Wikimedia Gitlab, not WMF Gitlab, so even defining what "officially supported" means would be quite difficult...

XtexChooser renamed this task from Create a top-level group for community-supported projects to Create new GitLab project group: wmgmc.Feb 22 2025, 2:37 PM
XtexChooser updated the task description. (Show Details)

@taavi thank you! I have updated the task description to a group request.

I was going to process this, but apparently I am missing the hat needed to do so: "You don’t have permission to create groups."

dancy subscribed.

https://gitlab.wikimedia.org/groups/repos/wmgmc is ready now. I added xtex as the owner.
