Sources and Community
The GCBoK is a static reference and lookup work. It does not integrate OSS sources, but rather points to the authorized source topology of the GitCover Commons (GCC).
Why do we link?
Linking serves a clear purpose:
- Single Source of Truth (SSoT): All canonical content, specifications, and tools are created versioned and GPG-signed at one authoritative location.
- Discoverability (Discovery): A public, FLOSS-oriented mirror increases visibility and avoids vendor lock-in.
- Community: Questions, bug reports, and discussions are bundled at one community location; source code references always point to the authorized source.
- Reference character: The GCBoK remains a lean reference work; the living artifacts reside in the repositories.
Authorized Sources
| Role | Location | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Primary / SSoT | git.gitcover.org/GCC | Canonical storage (GPG-signed, versioned) |
| Public OSS Mirror / CDN | codeberg.org/gitcover-commons | Read-only mirror; FLOSS discovery (also for GCBoK and GitCover-related works) |
| Community Hub | github.com/gitcover-commons | Issues & Discussions; source code references to Codeberg. Not canonical |
Note: This mapping of sources, mirror, and community hub reflects the current state and may change. Please check the respective canonical source on gitcover.org for the current state.
