Unfortunately he didn’t mention the place where I should make the change - sounds to me like some kind of insider knowledge which I don’t have - at least not now.
I am in doubt that changing the current value of the property url from arduino / ExtendedTouchEvent · GitLab to arduino / ExtendedTouchEvent · GitLab makes any difference, because a request to the later one is instantly redirected (with HTTP 302) to the 1st one - but I like to try it nevertheless. I would combine that with a minor patch and make a new release.
He is saying to try changing the URL at line 8 of https://gitlab.com/arduino23/ExtendedTouchEvent/-/blob/master/library.properties to https://gitlab.com/arduino23/ExtendedTouchEvent.git
However, I think there is also some confusion here. But as far as what to do, just wait for 24-36 hours after making the change, to see if the crawler picks up your library. I can’t comment re gitlab vs github… I’ve used both, and can’t complain about reliability or speed of gitlab on a large scale… it seems just fine, and has given GitHub some much needed competition. I especially like the fact that you can self-host GitLab if you so desire!
@ivankravets - why is there a - at the end of that URL? That’s what’s cased the error in your case… for some reason you’re doing https://gitlab.com/arduino23/ExtendedTouchEvent/- instead of https://gitlab.com/arduino23/ExtendedTouchEvent/
Funny you say that… I predominately use ARM64 boards (pine64,rock64,rockpro64) so wanted to run GitLab on them (but couldn’t at the time), so now I use Gitea and have that running locally 24x7… runs a treat, and means I can work on any of my machines, whilst having version control and somewhat of a backup across machines, without the data leaving my local network!
which I don’t have - at least not now.
- that gives me the opportunity to make some experiments and gives me more control than in a public repo
