GitHub Enterprise vs sourcehut

GitHub's UI is clean and intuitive. Each view is designed to not fill the screen with useless information.

For example, the repository view displays only the most crucial data about that repo - on the top it displays the number of commits, branches, releases and contributors. When clicked, each of them will take the user to a page that displays more detailed information.

GitHub enterprise is available for Amazon AWS, VMware and now on OpenStack KVM as well.
This facilitates the use of GitHub Enterprise for people already familiar with these platforms and allows teams to keep using their infrastructure of choice.

When linked to JIRA, branches, commit messages and pull requests can all reference JIRA issues. This allows JIRA to display information about your development activity in the corresponding issue.

GitHub Enterprise has powerful search features that allow users to search by file name or project name. It's one of GitHub's most powerful tools.

GitHub has improved the LDAP performance. By optimizing searching strategies, they have reduced significant network IO and total queries. Therefore, in some cases as much as 40 percent less data is transmitted on sign on.

Gists are ways to share code or have conversations about anything without needing a full git repo, and still, they work as git repos so they are versioned, forkable and usable from git.

GitHub does not render just markdown, it also renders geojson files, 3D models and csv files.

With GitHub Enterprise edits to code files and to files in general can be made inline right on the web page UI.

There is an option to test GitHub Enterprise for free for 45 days.

No javascript, drasticly light interface

Unlike other services that make their communication services like mainstream social media, Sourcehut uses good old mailing lists to make things simpler. It capitalizes on git's "git send-email" feature. This is in adherence to Sourcehut's general design, which is to make simple, reliable products. The official website is at https://lists.sr.ht, and they have a tutorial on setting your git client up at https://git-send-email.io

Sourcehut has an automated build service at https://builds.sr.ht that can build your code from it's repository. Because the project is in alpha, this service is currently free (they will build your projects for you for free!)

Because the project is in alpha, the "pro" features are free.
