Does any other repo from the list passes A+5? As I know even
Savannah can't do it. IIUC the feature of federation in forgejo is
currently developed by those who were last active participants of
ForgeFed project
https://codeberg.org/ForgeFed/ForgeFed/commits/branch/main which
aim was exactly the federation like in fediverse between
instances... It could be next step of freedom in a git repos
world. Their aim is to make possible to have one accout on one
instance and be able to make pull requests to any other "forgefed"
instance (I am not sure about compatibility and live of forgefed
now) and create issues and collaborate with other people which
have accounts on other instances. The idea is to connect people to
destroy necessity to registry on any concrete repo to participate
in a project you are interested in. In fact the opportunity to
export data (A+5) is only a small piece of what projects aim
(though it isn't fully implemented now). I also would like to
propose A+6 which is about the fact you can use your "fediverse"
account on one instance and interact with another but now we don't
have things that aren't in alpha stage about it. If you want to
know more. Ask the forgefed project and those who currently
develop federation features in forgejo (in fact they are the same
people)

A+5: I think it passes. It's *possible*
but not simple. There is not a straight-forward data exporting,
there is only API-based transfer which is usually done by
triggering import command at another Forgejo instance. However,
there is also a dump-repo command to export data, though that
still does it via the API.
https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/issues/398 is about
improving that process.
https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/issues/248 is also
relevant. https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/Community/issues/896 is
about Codeberg rate-limits delaying or blocking export.
https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/Community/issues/960 is another
issue indicating that exporting is indeed possible but needs
improved process. Here's an issue about export also including
user profile: https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/Community/issues/420
and again, this is messy but possible and being worked on.
