Objectives/Git Forge Initiative 2025

Purpose

Vision

To empower Fedora developers and the Fedora community with a streamlined workflow through a consolidated Git source control and issue tracking solution, powered by Forgejo on Fedora Infrastructure.

Mission

To consolidate Fedora's source code management, issue tracking, and project hosting onto a single Forgejo platform deployed on the Fedora OpenShift Cluster, replacing Bugzilla and sun-setting Pagure (src.fedoraproject.org and pagure.io), while offering a migration path for Fedora Project repositories currently hosted on external platforms.
