The issue for me is that I find it ridiculous to need an extra command line app just for sending E-Mails. I already have software for that and I do not want to work with my E-Mail login data on the command line. I know about git-credentials, but I already have software for storing my passwords and I do not want to use an additional one. Further, I don't want to need to set this up on each machine that I'm working on. I'm using a git client that can also submit PRs to GitHub and that has always been fine and sufficient for hundreds of projects I've been working on or contributed to. The procedure here does not match with my workflow, it's a recurring annoyance and that in turn even affects quality of my contributions. Anyway - I'll get over it, I got just a small time window anyway before I'll fallback again into a rather passive role. I have suggested the GitGitGadget way as an option with the potential of being acceptable for everyone, as nobody would have to change the way he is used to work. Though, there's one point where I agree with Nicholas: applause from non-contributors doesn't help much in that matter. Without being backed by at least a small number of the regular devs, this cannot fly. softworkz _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
