My experience with the Swift community has been extremely positive though, I’d be surprised if there is something particularly crazy that only LLVM needs that GitHub hasn’t encountered.  That said, again, I don’t have any practical experience with this part of the stack,

Yes, but this part of the problem is trivial to solve. We can add a github
workflow which triggers on pull-requests being uploaded or modified, which
will @ people who ask to be, based on a configuration file matching commit
paths/descriptions. There may even be something existing which does this,
but even if not, it should be no more than a week to fully implement.

If resolving this would actually let us migrate to GitHub, I'd volunteer to
implement it myself, but it seems like there's other issues which are less
trivial to solve that might also block it.
