Nope, you'd have to try much harder for that ;-P Mistakes happen. Grieving over them isn't productive. Looking for clues on how to avoid repetition can be. In this particular case, you tried to help out a maintainer, and the maintainer didn't like the result. Possible strategy: 0. Make sure to cc: maintainers in your reply to the patch. 1. If you judge the patch not to be trivial, say so. 2. For maintainers who prefer not to be helped out by -trivial (in your subjective judgement), reply that you're going to take this only if the maintainer gives his blessings. 3. Else, do your usual review and "applied to -trivial" thing. Additionally, add any missing cc: maintainer(s) when you commit. Perhaps you can even automate this step. That way, they get cc'ed on your pull request, too, giving them a last chance to veto a patch they missed / ignored until then. Basically, just what you do know plus systematic cc'ing. Thanks for serving as -trivial maintainer! [...]
