Jonas Chevalier | Actually I was coming here initially to ask if anyone is setting up a mirror of nixpkgs :) I have a feeling we're going to see more GitHub outages in the next 18 months or so:

Jonas Chevalier | It might be good to think a bit about partial fallback solutions. | 17:13:33 |

Arian | Ipv6 when | 17:16:40 |
Arian | Im way less worried about the source code. Our usage of GitHub actions is an existential risk to the project though | 17:17:04 |
Arian | It's literally down 4 times per month and they'll rugpull us at some point | 17:17:16 |
Ilan Joselevich (Kranzes) | Didn't we start using GHA more over the past year or so? | 17:20:36 |
Arian | yes | 17:23:47 |

sterni | I am already mirroring the git repository, I think it is updated three times a day. Should be easy to increase the frequency. | 21:36:54 |
7c6f434c | Speaking of GH reliability, today it did not manage to figure out whether a 5-line PR to elections repo can be merged via web UI or not… | 21:38:53 |
7c6f434c | Is Hydra not maintaining a git clone with all the branches it builds? | 21:39:53 |
Arian | GitHub was down for a few hours today | 21:46:43 |

uep | Hydra is clearly having Some Kind Of A Time.. #hugops to whoever's trying to make it work | 03:02:39 |
uep | those builds seem to restart or roll back and get forgotten a lot.. | 03:03:23 |
uep | and the most recent eval seems to have gone backwards with the others too. | 03:03:49 |
uep | (they kept going back to "1" pending job, until this latest much bigger jump) | 03:04:25 |
