The key thing about Linux’s contributor base isn’t so much its size as its distributedness and hierarchical contribution paths. I’m sure other projects have as many or more lines of code per year going into them. The Windows kernel must, for example, as must the BSDs, since those repos hold more than just a kernel. The thing about most other large projects is that they do not have this highly-distributed hierarchical contribution model. You’re either one of the trusted few with a commit bit, or you are not. Few organizations have the problem that the full power of Git solves. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
