Re: [Caml-list] opam http repo, archive downloading

Unfortunately, that's the route most github projects take: you
interact with them through the issues tracker.
I regret the mailing-list with archives and well-understood process
(... and running on free software stacks), but the convenience for
developers to discuss design questions, comment on tentative commits
and hastily merge changes in a single unified clicky interface is
manifest. Before someone develops a Firefox,Chrome,whatever extension
doing "oh this looks like a commit URL let's add an option to find the
corresponding repo of mine and pull it there in one click", you're
going to have to adapt to the {github,bitbucket,gitorious,gitlab}
interfaces.
