B.2 Partially Supported Forges
B.2.1 Gitea https://gitea.io
This is the next forge whose API will be supported.
B.2.2 Gogs https://gogs.io
Once Gitea is supported it should be fairly simple to support Gogs
too, because the former is a fork of the latter and the APIs seem to
still be very similar.
B.2.3 Bitbucket https://bitbucket.org
I don’t plan to support Bitbucket’s API any time soon, and it gets
less likely that I will every do it every time I look at it.
B.2.3.1 Bitbucket Caveats
- The API documentation is poor and initial tests indicated that the
implementation is buggy.
- Atlassian’s offering contains two very distinct implementations
that are both called "Bitbucket". Forge only supports the
implementation whose only instance is available at
https://bitbucket.org, because I only have access to that.
- Unlike all other forges, Bitbucket does not expose pull-requests
as references in the upstream repository. For that reason Forge
actually treats it as a semi-forge, not as forge whose API is not
supported yet. This means that you cannot checkout pull-requests
locally. There is little hope that this will ever get fixed; the
respective issue was opened six years ago and there has been no
progress since: https://bitbucket.org/site/master/issues/5814.
