  LAMurakami GitLab/GitHub Pages


Welcome to the LAMurakami GitLab/GitHub Pages Static Website

Why GitLab and GitHub?

In 2015 I created the GitHub account as a "The Data Scientist's Toolbox Task" and it became my default remote for repos that were to be made public. In 2023 when I started investigating the transition to IPv6 to avoid paying for a public IPv4 address I found that GitHub does not support IPv6. Dealing with it became one of many IPv6 only workarounds I developed. In 2024 I created the GitLab account after seeing many complaining about the GitHub lack of IPv6 support say that moving to GitLab is the answer.

One of the main advantages of GitHub public repos was the ability to link to files and even changes in documentation. I now have a lot of links to GitHub in my documentation. I will move to links on GitLab instead but may never change all the links I previously created. It is possible GitHub will remedy the IPv6 deficiencies and will be as good as GitLab for me. It is not too much trouble for me to update both remotes when making changes which is actually three since I also have a private remote.

New links to source will be to GitLab but I may never get around to fixing all the links to GitHub. GitHub Pages is deployed to servers that support both IPv4 and IPv6 but should always link to the copy of source on GitLab or the links will be broken for IPv6 only users.

LAM Alaska git repository store

I maintain a copy of all the repositories that are publicly available on GitLab/GitHub in a private repository store that is a component of a LAM Alaska clone. This remote also has repositories that will not be made public including remote copies of the etckeeper repository for all my machines and the lam repo that has the code for the secure side of LAM Alaska. I support git@server and https:// access to gitweb but only for an authenticated user.

GitLab has a public project for repos that have recent activity

I initially copied 9 repositories used for a LAM Alaska Clone on AWS then the gci and qemu repos used for a LAM Alaska LAN clone. I then added the lamurakami.gitlab.io which is lamurakami.github.io on GitHub and is the source of my GitHub Pages and configured it to be the source of my GitLab Pages as well.

Repos for LAM AWS Linux Apache MariaDB in the cloud

After publishing some GitHub Pages I decided that I should upload more repos just for the value for documentation.

More Repos with recent activity (since I retired)
