+Before reporting a bug, you should try stripping down your Vim configuration
+and removing other plugins. The sad truth about VimScript is that it is
+fraught with incompatibilities waiting to happen. I'm happy to work around
+them where I can, but it's up to you to isolate the conflict.
+
+Fugitive is particularly prone to regressions due to Git version issues,
+platform issues, and interactions with other plugins. I end up bisecting a
+lot more than other projects, and thus I'm especially meticulous here about
+maintaining a clean, readable, history. Squash and force push any requested
+changes to a pull request. And if your [commit message
+sucks](http://tbaggery.com/2008/04/19/a-note-about-git-commit-messages.html),
+I'm not going to accept it. Period.
+
+Beyond that, don't be shy about asking before patching. What takes you hours
+might take me minutes simply because I have both domain knowledge and a
+perverse knowledge of VimScript so vast that many would consider it a symptom
+of mental illness. On the flip side, some ideas I'll reject no matter how
+good the implementation is. "Send a patch" is an edge case answer in my book.
