Welcome to the 雨HUT wiki. For now, assume that the totality of the sr.ht wiki applies here until further notice.

#FAQ
(Frequently-Asked by the guy I just made up)
#Why the name?
This place is run by ~aleteoryx, whose website is aleteoryx.me. ame! あめ! 雨! 雨 is Japanese for rain, and with the backend software being called SourceHut, rain-hut seemed like a good name. This is also the reason for the tagline.
#Why SourceHut?
The admin is both a snob and tired of hosting large software projects. The largest self-hosted git forges are bulky, messy pieces of software. Many also give the admin some sort of bad vibe.
SourceHut is by no means a small project, but it is simple to host and significantly simpler on the frontend than any alternative. The admin also likes that its email-based features essentially allow accountless contributions.
#What services are running?
- project hub
- git repos
- mercurial repos
- wikis (you're here right now!)
- mailing lists
- issue trackers
The subdomains have parity with sr.ht subdomains, e.g. meta.sr.ht == meta.amehut.dev.
#Any services inbound?
A CI service is inbound, but will require more setup effort (egads, touching wireguard configs!).
Eventually, a pages solution will be setup, likely pending on the admin learning mod_md.
Similarly, a pastes solution will eventually be setup.
These last two are both considered non-critical, and easily handled by other services.
#What's this thing running on, anyway?
A 2008 Dell Inspiron with 2 gigs of DDR2 and a Core 2 Duo.
Yep.
Pic coming soon!
#Anything else I should know?
The mailserver has some haphazard bits of configuration that might impact spam filtering.
The admin will fix it.
Eventually.
Also the API does not work currently. A fix is inbound.
#Well that's probably fine, how do I sign up?
Right now? You don't. If you know the admin, contact them off-of-here and ask for an account. If you don't, you're SOL. Try regular SourceHut lol.
