I think Andrea just didn't realize that some GNOME maintainers do accept pull requests. The problem is not for modules that do allow pull requests, but for the ones that don't. I greatly prefer Bugzilla and only check pull requests roughly once a year, so it's essential that we give contributors an automated warning when they submit a pull request that's just going to be ignored. I didn't know CONTRIBUTORS.md could be used for that; that saves us a lot of trouble, so we don't have to create a bot that polls our repos to check for pull requests to close. The problem is, I think there are very few GNOME modules that do allow pull requests, so this warning should be opt-out rather than opt-in. So I think we should add this file to every repo on git.gnome.org without asking maintainers, so that we cover every repo, and maintainers can just delete it if they do want to allow pull requests. _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
