Thank you for abiding by the guideline.
Ryan, I find your communication style quite unfriendly here. I don't
see why Akira's considerately presented preference, which is different
from the one mp makes, deserves such a sarcastic reply.
If you drive away a single contributer by applying this style, you
have hurt the project more than anyone could by not adhering to some
minor guideline.
You're right, that sounded a little snarky and I apologize. I really
did just mean exactly what I wrote: thanking Akira for abiding by the
guideline. Sometimes ports get committed that don't, and then I fix
them; I like it when I don't have to do that. I should have probably
put a smiley after that sentence.
What I wrote above that:
Wonderful. So they knowingly distribute a client that does not
conform to
the client/server agreement.
If we care enough to prevent these malformed commits from getting
into our
repository, we can write a pre-commit hook to prevent them.
was intended to be more critical, but of the developers of git, not
of Akira. Just a rant, which would probably have been more effective
if sent to the developers of git.
