Hi Vadim, I agree 100% - you do not want to scare away contributors with too many requirements.
It may turn out that some occasional contributors may end up passing code to the core developers to check in anyways. Luckily, git-flow is a client-side tool, so it's definitely not a hard requirement. Though, IMHO, it's probably easier to mess up a repository doing things by hand at a low git level (especially for beginners) rather than have git-flow do all the branching/merging/tagging work automagically for you... ...but the good news is, most problems, should they arise, are not too hard to fix at the git level. - Ken On Sun, Nov 18, 2012 at 1:35 AM, Vadim Zeitlin <[email protected]> wrote: > On Sun, 18 Nov 2012 01:00:42 +0800 Ken Feng <[email protected]> wrote: > > KF> The link you referred to is actually based on a piece of software that > KF> sits on top of git called git-flow (installable on debian systems via > KF> sudo apt-get install git-flow). > KF> > KF> I have been using it for about six months now (takes a few weeks to > KF> get used to).
