Agit workflow is something to consider. Still, I wonder how Github
educated people, reluctant to email exchange, will react to a

    git push origin HEAD:refs/for/<target-branch>/<session>

based workflow, and if this really lowers the barrier to entry[1].

Would it be a valid option to keep N mirrors, all in sync, aside from
the main repo ? Upon pulling, you randomly hit one of them. Is there a
reason to avoid this approach (even now) ?

> As well-intentioned as Codeberg is ...

Fully agree.
