Miraheze Offline Help

Tech:GitHub

GitHub is the service we use to host our open-source repositories. They can be found here.

Push access to the repositories is limited to Technology team members, but any user can make a pull request. Puppet runs every 30 minutes (except MediaWiki extensions or skins) and can be run manually on each server by a member of the Technology team with access. Some repositories can also be deployed with mwdeploy.

It is recommended to read the “README.md” file for a repository before contributing to it.

Some repositories may be given access to Technology team members without shell access, however, only those with shell access may be given push access to repositories that automatically deploy (puppet, mw-config, mediawiki-repos, ssl, dns, and MirahezeMagic)
