Session
We are offering Packit, a free GitHub app and GitLab integration which enables you to build and test your upstream project on an RPM-based Linux distribution like Fedora Linux, CentOS Stream, Mageia or openSUSE. Once you get RPM builds of your project, you can be pretty sure that your project will work once released and delivered via the downstream distribution. The core functionality of Packit is built around pull requests (as a standard CI system) and releases (bring the release to Fedora rawhide). You can read more about Packit at https://packit.dev/
In this session, Franta and Tomas will describe the Packit project, Fedora’s packaging workflow, showcase some of the well-known projects which use Packit and offer a brief perspective on what it’s like to develop and maintain the integration service.
