TIL It had svn support 😮
I thought Github only supported git, too. Did it support Mercury at some point? I assume this is the last of other VCS support in Github.
Mercurial* and no, GitHub never supported hg, that was kind of the distinguishing feature of bitbucket back in the glory days of VCS plurality.
Now if you need mercurial hosting, heptapod (a friendly fork of gitlab with mercurial support) is a great way to go
I was half-asleep when I wrote this, lol. Bitbucket dropped Mercurial recently, too. Sourcehut is the only other code forge I know of that supports hg which I really love. Kind of sets a high bar for contributions, but not being vendor locked in is a bonus. And I wish they'd more tightly integrate the subdomains...
