new bridges for different platforms/services

[ghost]

Hi all! I would be happy if there are more bridges in git-bug like: Codeberg, Gnu Savannah, fedora pagure or Radicle. But what is needed to create a bridge? Could this be done technically?

I welcome bridge contribution, but it's not my personal priority. Implementing a bridge is roughly:

• importer: query the remote tracker for updates, make sure they are replicated in git-bug (identities, bugs ...)
• exporter: find in git-bug what has not been marked as exported, make the API calls to replicate that (which means the remote tracker need to have a reasonable API to do so)

The most advanced and complete bridge currently is the github one, about 2200 lines of code, not counting tests. The gitlab one is 1200 LOC. It's something doable for someone a bit motivated.
