Let's look at some of the suggestions you have made: == git-related == > s/l/line/? I said fine, and I implemented it. > Still no -CCC? I said I forgot, and I implemented it. What you are really complaining about is that I don't agree with *every* single suggestion you make. And since you made them, they must be sensible, and single I don't agree with you, I must not be sensible, is that right? And stop bringing irrelevant garbage to this discussion. The discussion about the coding-style not about guidelines, because there is no guideline for that open parenthesis, ad obviated by the fact that there's over *FIVE HUNDRED* instances where it's not aligned that way. Nobody is denying the notes.rewritten.* guideline here, I didn't because that is *actually* a guideline. So your comment about guidelines is an irrelevant straw man. > However, he is a productive programmer, and submits fixes > to real issues.

We are trying to improve Git, and the indisputable fact is that 'git cherry-pick' is missing a way to copy the notes. It's indisputable that this patch implements that, and I did it by following existing code, and by running the whole test suit for 'git rebase'. I've done my job already. Thomas Rast doesn't like the way this is implemented, and nothing in the commit message would change that. This is was a sensible community, you would stop ganging up on me, Thomas Rast would implement copy_notes_for_rewrite(), and add tests for other commits (git am, git rebase) to check that the functionality he claims to be so worried about is working properly. And this was a sensible community you wouldn't complain about me choosing how to spend my time however I see fit. I did some work, I sent a patch, Thomas Rast has some issues, I'm not interested enough in this patch to investigate them, I work on something else. What's wrong with that? Eventually I might come back to this patch, and eventually I might implement copy_notes_for_rewrite, and I might implement the tests that check for the behavior that I missed, if nobody beats me to it, which is usually the case, but I think Thomas should put his personal issues aside, put his money where his mouth is, and implement it himself. There's nothing wrong with me choosing how best to spend my time.
