Well, the git-send-email patchbomb workflow is pretty ugly too in many respects. I can see why some people don't much like it. [1] Did you offer those Debian folks a git url they could fetch from ? That significantly reduces the friction (and doesn't fill their mailbox with a to-them-unwanted patchbomb). If a Debian team insisted that the only way they would consider my contribution is if I provided it via github, I would probably ask the DPL or someone to help mediate. Ian. [1] And I speak as someone who does use git's patchbomb workflow an awful lot. I also have a github account which I use for dealing with upstreams who don't share my values. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
