alt Hacker NewsIt's a little disappointing that BugsEverywhere/BE (https://github.com/aaiyer/bugseverywhere) never gained popularity.
I appreciate that tools like Git Bug are not tied to a single repo host but they are tied inherently to a single VCS (git). BE was not reliant on a specific VCS, and it's a *really* simple format on-disk too.
With some motivation you could port git-bug to another VCS without too much problem. You would need to implement those interfaces [1]. The one you care about especially is RepoData, which mainly imply you can store a DAG, have references and push/pull. I believe other VCS (say mercurial) have similar concepts.
Or you could just as well plug a generic database there.
