 3- Where do I log in? :: You do not, for most things. The web is read
 4  (and light write) — mint a browser session with =gitbay web login=.
 5- Pull requests? :: Merge requests: =gitbay mr create= from a branch or
 6  fork; merges are ff/merge/squash/rebase with signature policy.
 7- Stacked PRs? :: Target another open merge request's source branch.
 8  The forge reads the stack from the branches, retargets what is above
 9  when the one below merges, and refuses squash or rebase under a stack.
10  No stack command; the workflow is branches. See
11  [[Stacked-MRs][Stacked merge requests]].
12- Moving from GitHub or Codeberg? :: =gitbay repo import= (git data)
13  then =gitbay repo import-issues= (history, from GitHub or any Forgejo
14  =--api-base=); =repo mirror= covers the transition window.
15- What is not planned? :: A container or package registry (scope creep
16  away from "forge"; external registries integrate through CI), an
17  email patch flow (revisit only if sourcehut-style demand appears),
18  federation and Postgres (no need at this scale). Recorded so the
19  absence reads as a decision, not an oversight.
20- Does CI run for my repository on gitbay.org? :: On a runner you
21  attach. The instance's own runner builds the forge's repositories and
22  its isolation canary, since it shares the host with the forge.
23  Install =gitbay-runner= on a machine of yours, run =gitbay-runner
24  init=, and attach the key it prints with =repo runner add= or on the
25  repository's settings page; see the Users page. A self-hosted
26  instance can do the same, or run one runner for whichever
27  repositories its operator attaches it to.
