Raw Blame History

AtayMakhzan

AtayMakhzan is Saad ibn Zoubayr's sovereign Moroccan developer forge.

This repository is an intentional source fork of upstream Gitea. The goal is not to create a cosmetic copy. The goal is to build a controlled forge system for Saad's ventures while preserving upstream security and maintainability discipline.

Upstream basis

Initial fork basis:

Gitea v1.26.2

Upstream remote:

https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea.git

AtayMakhzan origin:

ssh://git@ataymakhzan.com:2222/ibnezzoubayr/Atay-Makhzan.git

Product doctrine

AtayMakhzan should be:

sovereign: code, repos, and infra controlled by Saad;
Moroccan: tasteful identity, not decorative folklore;
developer-first: fast, calm, reliable, and sharp;
operations-safe: backups and rollback before production changes;
upstream-aware: security releases are merged deliberately.

Fork discipline

Preserve upstream MIT license and copyright notices.
Track upstream releases and security patches.
Document every divergence in FORK_CHANGELOG.md.
Add tests for behavioral changes.
Avoid schema/auth/storage changes until a migration and rollback plan exists.
Keep production deploy logic in Atay-Makhzan-Ops, not in this source repo.

First milestone

The first milestone is a buildable, deployable fork that behaves like Gitea 1.26.2 with safe AtayMakhzan identity changes only.

Non-goals for the first milestone:

no database schema change;
no authentication rewrite;
no SSH/Git transport change;
no permission model change;
no broad UI rewrite;
no production deployment until staging/smoke verification passes.
