2.1 Supported Forges

Github

Forge’s support for Github can be considered the "reference implementation". Support for other forges can lag behind a bit.

Github Caveats

• Forge uses the Github GraphQL API when possible but has to fall back to use the REST API in many cases because the former is still rather incomplete.
• Forge depends on the updated_at field being updated when appropriate. For Github pull-requests at least, that is not always done.

Gitlab Caveats

• Forge cannot provide notifications because the Gitlab API does not expose those.
