That's the thing you don't understand about how this stuff works. This mailing list is a volunteer effort. We may suck at helping anyone asked for help but you didn't pay anyone to spend *their* time on trying to help. It's like being starved, knocking on someone's door asking for food, eating it and then complaining it wasn't quite to your taste or not heated up enough. Seeking for help on public forums is a "take it or leave it" thing. > And on the internets here, it could be wasting the time of thousands > of people.

Uh, wait, where it is? No, instead you spent time and effort to produce two mail messages intended to crap onto the heads of everyone attempted to help the OP. Come on, please cut this BS on this list. If you can't be constructive (you can't) but feel an irresistible urge to teach volunteers how to do things, please go and write a blog post or two. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
