What is Gogs?

Gogs v0.14.4 RCs fix broken organization and team actions.

Gogs tagged v0.14.4-rc.1 and rc.2 on November 11 and 12. rc.2 fixes organization member and team forms that failed with a missing CSRF token after a change on the 0.14 line; rc.1 only touches CI tests. No final 0.14.x release appears in the feed.

What is Hatchet?

Hatchet chases DAG crash loops through three engine patches in a day.

Hatchet added sandboxes, Labs switches and cloud MFA in early November. The week since has been engine reliability: v0.120.3 batches DAG step triggers, v0.120.4 fixes stranded match rows and prunes database partitions before locking, and v0.120.5 removes another cause of DAG crash loops. Python SDK 1.46.0 makes it easier to unit-test tasks and passes failures to cleanup dependencies.

Gogs vs Hatchet: editorial side-by-side

G
Gogs
INFRA · APIS
5.0

Gogs v0.14.4 RCs fix broken organization and team actions.

◆ Current state

Gogs tagged v0.14.4-rc.1 and rc.2 on November 11 and 12. rc.2 fixes organization member and team forms that failed with a missing CSRF token after a change on the 0.14 line; rc.1 only touches CI tests. No final 0.14.x release appears in the feed.

◆ Where it's heading

Gogs remains in slow maintenance: release candidates months apart, fixes for regressions and CI clean-up, with automated builds mixed into the release feed. Nothing in the entries points to new features.

◆ Prediction

Expect v0.14.4 final shortly with the CSRF fix, then another long gap.

6.3

Hatchet chases DAG crash loops through three engine patches in a day.

◆ Current state

Hatchet added sandboxes, Labs switches and cloud MFA in early November. The week since has been engine reliability: v0.120.3 batches DAG step triggers, v0.120.4 fixes stranded match rows and prunes database partitions before locking, and v0.120.5 removes another cause of DAG crash loops. Python SDK 1.46.0 makes it easier to unit-test tasks and passes failures to cleanup dependencies.

◆ Where it's heading

After a burst of features, Hatchet is tuning the engine under load: fewer locks, batched triggers and crash-loop fixes. The SDKs are getting testing and correctness work to match.

◆ Prediction

Expect more v0.120.x patches on DAG handling, then a sandbox package out of release candidate.
