[FFmpeg-devel] Forgejo questions

[Michael Niedermayer]

Hi all

how can i simply follow all changes, patches and discussions ?

prior to teh forgejo test, i simply go over all new mail in my ffmpeg-devel
folder.
In that folder,
    I can leave things as new that i want to look at later
    I can mark things as old that i have not read but dont plan to do anything with
    I can mark things as read that i have looked at and am done with (like after applying them locally)
    I can press a single button to apply the patch from a mail

Going over the whole list is not particularly difficult (the contents of
mails and patches may be difficult but the managing of mails/patches is not)

But with forgejo now there are mails in my inbox, in ffmpeg-devel neither
seem to contain patches, nor do they seem to represent dicussions with
correct threading. I dont even know from 3 mails which is a reply to which.

I see https://code.ffmpeg.org/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/activity
but that also seems not to really contain the level of detail that a simple
threaded mailinglist with new mails shows

Basically, can someone explain me how to use this effectively ?

I have figured out that with
fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/fforge/pr/*
i can get all pull requests into my local git nicely

thx
