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. |
