Difficulty Rebasing Against a Graphics Driver Fork Missing Upstream History
Users of a Mesa/RADV graphics-driver fork want the maintainer to preserve individual upstream commits rather than squashing them, since the current single-commit approach makes it hard to rebase, inspect changes, or reuse the fork.

Similar Problems
surfaced semanticallyProject Source Code Distributed Only as RAR Archive, Blocking Community Contributions
A software project distributes its source code as a RAR file instead of a GitHub repository, making it impossible for contributors to fork, submit pull requests, or track versions. The distribution method effectively prevents open source collaboration.
Difficulty Submitting PRs to Non-Default Versioned Branches
Developers contributing bug fixes to third-party libraries struggle to target PRs at specific versioned branches rather than the default main branch. GitHub and similar platforms default to the repository's primary branch, making it non-obvious how to open PRs against maintenance branches. This creates friction for upstream contributions and patch submissions.
No Direct Way to Trace a Changed File Back to Its Originating Commit in a Squash-Merged PR
Developers investigating a specific file change in a multi-commit pull request have no built-in way to jump from the Files changed view to the exact commit(s) that touched that file, especially once commits are squash-merged and original history is lost. This forces manual commit-by-commit scrolling or git blame archaeology to find the source of a change.
GitHub Actions Checkout Merges PRs Against Stale Base Branch Refs
GitHub's actions/checkout does not always check out a pull request merged against the current tip of the default branch; the merge reference only updates on push events to the PR branch, not on default-branch commits or workflow re-runs. This causes subtle, hard-to-diagnose inconsistencies in CI workflows that check out multiple related repositories.
No Self-Hosted Gitea Support Locks Users Into GitHub Integration
OpenChambers issue/PR linking, review context, and account connection features are built exclusively around GitHub, so teams running self-hosted Gitea instances cannot use these workflows without migrating off their existing git infrastructure. The maintainer confirmed this would require rebuilding several GitHub-specific integration surfaces to support Gitea's API.
