 cargo install ngit is 333/346 20 minutes later 
 Compiling dependancies is fun. You should try and install nix-bitcoin with all the features turned on. That builds the dependancies and runs all their tests. Many hours of the fan creating white noise. 
 dependencies ... 😁 
 😂
And I only have 2 cores and a gig RAM on my ancient Linux netbook, so yay. Would take weeks. 
 Okay, ngit v1.1.2 is installed and responding. 👍🏼 
 We're in! 😊

@DanConwayDev  
 Nice! 
 Can you see the link or do you also get a 500? 
 I see it fine and don't get a 500 error? Is this on gitworkshop? 
 Yes. 
 Do you still get a 500 error? What's the link you are using? 
 should be fixed now. I created an issue in the gitworkshop.dev repo for this:
nostr:nevent1qqspl4md9965g7ynn6297hsglu7p8yfm3pkdtg6agpyrjjaly7ttwhspz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfdu22pp0q 
 I didn't really know how to use it, so I cloned the source repo and my fork. I guess I submit patches from my fork to the source and then accept them on the other side, somehow? 
 If you want to submit a patch from the source repo you can. Submit the patch using `ngit send`. Other people can comment. 
 To accept the patch as-is, use `ngit list` to either checkout a branch with the patch that can be merged with `git merge` or apply the patch directly to the tip of your current branch (best done from master).  
 Once applied / merge you can mark it as merged on gitworkshop 
 We only submit from forks, over PRs. So far. So that everyone can review and comment before the merge, and to keep the source repo neater.

Trying to figure out how to use the patch stuff. What exactly is the difference? 
 a proposal (created with `ngit create`) is like a PR which lives on nostr instead of a fork. Anyone on nostr can comment on it before it is merged. They can view proposals with `ngit list` and check them out as branches (like you can with a PR) 
 I think I should write a detailed guide as I guess the high level overview of the commands are not sufficient 
 Would probably help more people to use it. 
 Yes. In could also do some 30 second screencasts to show how quick and easy it is 
 I'm also thinking about adding a git remote helper so that you can use more native git commands like `git branch -r` to list proposals 
 Like a throughput to git? 
 Remote helpers allow git functions like fetch and push to work over other protocols like ssh or https or nostr. The nostr protocol could proxy requests to the 'clone' address specified in the events and then make proposals on nostr act as remote branches.  
 We're in! 😊

Do your relays accept the ngit notes? Because those are my dev-npub's mailboxes. 
 Did you successfully send one? I cant see it on any relays.
When you ran `ngit send` it would have told you if each relay accepted your patch event(s) 
 I think I have a problem because I have two different repos with the same name, but different source repos.

One is a fork of the other 
 Isn't it confusing to maintain two different repos with the same name? 
 yes 😂

Never occured to me to rename them, since I've never maintained the source and the fork, before. Used to only work with branches on the source repo.

I should go rename all my forks, so that I can identify them. 
 What are the purposes of the forks? Do they differ signifcantly? Why not have them as branches of the same repo? 
 We're using the same as branches, with each dev having a fork that they're working on and then making a PR to the source repo for merges.

Just looks neater in the source. 
 Each dev would use the source repo to get the lastest changes. Then use `ngit send` to create proposal (PR equivalent) when they ready to share what they are working on. They can update the proposal with `ngit push` or after a rebase they can use `ngit push --force`. `git merge`  can be used for merging into the master branch to be pushed to the source repo. 
 Okay, looks much better. 😅  I was so confused!
Just prefacing my forks all with "sw_".

https://gitworkshop.dev/repo/sw_gitcitadel 
 It only makes sense to have a nostr repo event for a distinct repository that you would want to receive proposals for or raise issues against. This typically wouldn't be one per developer. 
 Okay, so then it would only need to be the source repos and not my forks. That makes sense. 
 I'm going to keep testing on my fork, tho, to keep the source one neat.

Let me go try to send something again and get you the output. 
 If a user-npub wrote me on Nostr with a bug, how do I turn that into an issue? With some sort of a quote or reply? 
 Hey, nostr:nprofile1qyfhwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnxxaazu6t09uq3wamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdehhxarj9e3xzmny9uq32amnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwv3sk6atn9e5k7tcqyzsq3hh327t0h2dq6matqn5064cgj2zanl2stkj6s0lg4t2h5dty6xk8zw9  that markdown looks very pretty. I like that. Displays on GitWorkshop better than on GitHub. 
 Thanks.

 I just realized that I accidentally named the repo "SilberWitch" instead of gitcitadel. 🤦‍♀️

How can I fix that? 
 Could you send it again (`ngit send`) and send a screenshot of the CLI output? 
 When I do ngit init, what does the "name" field refer to? I thought it was my username, but is it the repo name? 
 I had to guess what the fields meant, when filling everything in, so now it looks like this and I think that's all wrong.


https://nostrcheck.me/media/fd208ee8c8f283780a9552896e4823cc9dc6bfd442063889577106940fd927c1/c4a4bcf9ec076b7ad9038a986832eed0e2b69c09600491c84cde0c5bff64af5a.webp 
 It should include a one sentence description of what the field means. Shouldn't it? 
 Everything other than identifier can be updated by running `ngit init` again 
 okay

What do I have to put in the clone and website fields? 
 Clone is the URL of the git repository on a git sercer used for cloning and fetching the latest tip of the master branch. It defaulted to origin. Website is for the URL of the projects homepage / best URL to find out more about the project.  
 your events were successfully received by the relays.
for some reason they are not being returned when queried by ngit or gitworkshop.dev.
I manually queried the relay for your patch events and found them. so this link will work:

I'll look at the issue of them not showing up on the gitworkshop.dev repo page and ngit first thing tomorrow. 
 I am tracking this issue through:
nostr:nevent1qqs0uwwmd05tu6jqcjd55k5he6tvsxlu2xxstd3xnykr2504n3t2qvslvnhqc 
 Im not sure. 
 oh nice, working on git stuff over nostr?  The relays accept all kinds by default.  There are settings to filter them just like with pubkeys if you wanted to do that.. (like to create a relay that only accepts git notes, or the opposite).   
 a relay plugin to enablr repo benefactors to pay a relay to accept events related to the relay would be cool 
 relay.tools can do this 
 How would it know if the event was related to the repo? All proposals and issues would tag the repo event but on these might not

 It should include a one sentence description of what the field means. Shouldn't it? 
 Everything other than identifier can be updated by running `ngit init` again 
 okay

What do I have to put in the clone and website fields? 
 Clone is the URL of the git repository on a git sercer used for cloning and fetching the latest tip of the master branch. It defaulted to origin. Website is for the URL of the projects homepage / best URL to find out more about the project.  
 your events were successfully received by the relays.
for some reason they are not being returned when queried by ngit or gitworkshop.dev.
I manually queried the relay for your patch events and found them. so this link will work:
https://gitworkshop.dev/repo/SilberWitch/proposal/5f21ee609ea743feafb9c13144c096c863f13592bbcf3912ece6b03875798511
I'll look at the issue of them not showing up on the gitworkshop.dev repo page and ngit first thing tomorrow. 
 I am tracking this issue through:

 hu cool.  
 Not at all. If both forks have a nostr repo event with the same 'earliest-unique-commit' then it might struggle. It shouldn't take much to fix edge cases like this 
 Here is a more detailed answer:
are we still talking about 'fork' with the github meaning rather than traditional meaning?
ngit will look for a nostr repo event  with the same 'earliest-unique-commit' as the first commit in the current git repo and post to that by default.
If it cant find any nostr repo events will ask for a naddr, which you can find on gitworkshop.dev.
If you commit the 'maintainers.yaml' file that gets created during `ngit init` it will post to the repo events it will ignore repo events from npubs not specified. This is a way of protecting against SPAM or scammers trying to claim your repo.
 
 Ah, is that why my sw_gitcitadel proposals show up under the gitcitadel repo?

I actually like that, as it's more like a PR on GitHub, that way, but I thought it was an error.

 a relay plugin to enablr repo benefactors to pay a relay to accept events related to the relay would be cool 
 relay.tools can do this 
 How would it know if the event was related to the repo? All proposals and issues would tag the repo event but on these might not
