The README (#5) says this repo is "mirrored to gitea.com/FrankenBit/tic-tac-toe". That is not true yet.

Measured 2026-10-08

  • gitea.com master is at 560862d9 (2026-09-04): ab01c898 plus 12 test:/ci: probe commits, which are not on this repo's master.
  • It has no tags and no releases, and none of #2, #3 or #5.
  • Its description already reads "mirrored from git.frankenbit.de (source of record)". The repo is not flagged as a mirror (mirror: false), so nothing syncs it.

To decide

  • Reset and sync: force the gitea.com master to this repo's master, which drops the probe commits, then keep it in sync, for example with a push mirror from this forge or release-toolkit's mirror workflow.
  • Or keep it as a probe sandbox: then change the README line and the repo description so neither calls it a mirror.

Both touch another forge's repository and its history, so this is for @alex.

Decision from @alex, 2026-10-08: keep the door open to making gitea.com a mirror again, but not yet. This stays open as the deferred decision.

Until then the README's "mirrored to gitea.com/FrankenBit/tic-tac-toe" overstates it: the gitea.com repo is still at 560862d9, with nothing syncing it.
