DEP-18: A proposal for GitLab-based collaboration in Debian

https://optimizedbyotto.com/post/debian-collaboration-on-git/

Git is the industry standard for software development, but I thasn’t been fully adopted in Debian packaging yet. Debian development is still based on uploading tarballs via FTP.

I believe that git-based workflows could enhance collaboration, transparency, and productivity for one of the world’s most vital open source projects. Increasing the use of salsa.debian.org, Debian's GitLab instance, would be a good step towards collaborative git usage.

Is it useful or needed? I guess it's neither.

Lol. Even Debian's version control is decades out of date.
