github - please follow

[Massimo Di Pierro]

web2py has many users but few github followers. This is a problem because the number of followers is a metric that can be used to guess popularity. 

You can help.

Get a github account and click on the star. https://github.com/web2py/web2py

It costs nothing and has benefits. For example you can receive notificatios when we make improvements.

Web2py has two repositories and many users are not likely to follow/star both.

Any plans for dropping hg repo in the future? (just curious)

We could. It helps me to have two copies. I have messed up the git repo a couple of times.

[Joe Barnhart]

Call me a Luddite but I still like hg.  Maybe it's cuz it's written Python... ;-)

Me too. But git won, so...

strange but true: forking does not automatically star.

Talking about metrics and popularity, it could be a good thing to determine how BuiltWith and Wappalizer detect frameworks to create their usage trend graphs. Both have Chrome extensions that tell you the frameworks used in a certain web page but web2py is usually not detected (not even in my page where I have certainty it was built with web2py). This could help show the world a more accurate graph of web2py usage.

What are your thoughts?

[Richard Vézina]

Done!

Prefer hg too!

web2py does set the X-Powered-By response header to "web2py", so hopefully that provides them with enough of a clue. What else should we do?

I'm using hg-git extension to get the best of both worlds:

http://hg-git.github.io/

It allows to work with git repos using mercurial tools.
Even you can maintain a mercurial repo and a github repo easily.
For example, in .hg/hgrc configuring both repos:

[paths]
default = https://rein...@code.google.com/p/pyafipws/
git = git+ssh://g...@github.com/reingart/pyafipws.git

Then, you can push to github:

hg push git

and to googlecode as usual:

hg push

The best thing is that it will convert the changeset and metadata
automatically between the two repositories:

https://github.com/reingart/pyafipws/commits/master

https://code.google.com/p/pyafipws/source/list

I'm using it to set up read-write mirrows of googlecode projects in
github, maybe this can help to unify the repos of web2py.

BTW, I also prefer mercurial, as it is easier for newcomers and begginers.

Thanks for this ... I'm a mercurial personality, too, but hadn't gotten on to figuring out the settings.
