What is OpenHub for GitHub?
OpenHub is an open-source alternative to GitHub designed for hosting and managing Git repositories. Like GitHub, OpenHub provides developers tools to manage and collaborate on their code, but with an emphasis on open source values.
Some key features of OpenHub include:
- Public and private Git repository hosting
- User and organization accounts
- Fine-grained access controls for repositories
- Code reviews and pull request management
- Issue and bug tracking tools
- Wikis and project documentation
- Built-in CI/CD pipelines
- Open source licensing tools
While GitHub focuses on social coding aspects, OpenHub places more value on building open source communities. Its code and development is completely open for anyone to contribute to. OpenHub also has stricter guidelines around ethics and inclusiveness in its community.
Overall, OpenHub aims to provide a transparent, community-oriented alternative to GitHub for open source projects. Its feature set allows full management and collaboration on Git repositories.
