Yes, it works by not giving credit to contributors.

This is the naturalistic fallacy; just because something is the case
doesn't mean it **should** be the case. And by that logic that's the
reply all projects can give to any suggestions for improvement: "this
is how this project works".

The fact remains you don't give credit, and that's what issue #7574
was all about, where you said "Note: that contribution is always
welcome and given in the commit message", which is clearly not true.

Caleb Tillman made a very simple fix on the tests of the Git project
[1], and he was mentioned in the release notes [2]. Why? Because he
contributed.

The vim project simply doesn't do what the Git project does; give attribution.

Cheers.
