Hi guys, Stemming from the SVN era, a lot of community contributers still have full commit rights on the blessed repositories. Because GitHub offers the "pull request" paradigm, the lack of commit rights are far less intrusive than in SVN. Many community contributors seem to prefer contributing changes through pull request paradigm, as it forces a core developer to sign off on the changes. Having direct commit rights can even be counter-intuitive: for example, if you edit a file directly on github, it doesn't create a pull request, but applies the changes directly. Commits from contributors that come in via pull requests are still attributed to the original author and count towards the original author's stats, so there are no additional disadvantages. Following that logic, I propose to *remove the commit rights on blessed for these contributors* in 72 hours: Please note that we appreciate past and future commits. Please keep the contributions coming! :) bauna bbrodt dennyxu dgutierr diega jcoleman0redhat0com jrenaat jsvitak JuanmaGonzalez KurtStam laune lazarotti leogomes lucazamador michaelneale michiBK mswiderski nheron nickboldt nmirasch pefernan RickJWagner ryanzhang saifulomar tkobayas trefor wmedvede yurloc If you're on this list and want to keep your commits rights on blessed, just reply to this mail and I 'll take you off the list.

If the proposed "remove" wouldn't let me do quick fixes like today's - as you proposed - then you might want to let me keep this right, at your discretion ;-) -W On 14/02/2013, Geoffrey De Smet <ge0ffrey.spam(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > Hi guys, > > Stemming from the SVN era, a lot of community contributers still have > full commit rights on the blessed repositories. > Because GitHub offers the "pull request" paradigm, > the lack of commit rights are far less intrusive than in SVN. > > Many community contributors seem to prefer contributing changes through > pull request paradigm, > as it forces a core developer to sign off on the changes. > Having direct commit rights can even be counter-intuitive: > for example, if you edit a file directly on github, it doesn't create a > pull request, but applies the changes directly. > Commits from contributors that come in via pull requests are still > attributed to the original author > and count towards the original author's stats, so there are no > additional disadvantages. > > Following that logic, I propose to *remove the commit rights on blessed > for these contributors* in 72 hours: > Please note that we appreciate past and future commits.

Since the time we started using github I've always preferred the pull-request mechanism instead of the direct commit. Having said that, having commit permissions is sometimes helpful and that is why I would like to remain in the commiters list: "just in case".

P.S: It's hard to get rid of the old SVN paradigms :).

If you want pull-requests to keep coming in, it is very important that you monitor and respond to those pull-requests that do come in. I see I am not the only one who submitted a pull-request a long time ago and still have no feedback or comments on it at all.

Just a note from one of those who are happy to contribute without commit rights... If you want pull-requests to keep coming in, it is very important that you monitor and respond to those pull-requests that do come in. I see I am not the only one who submitted a pull-request a long time ago and still have no feedback or comments on it at all. 22 open requests on Drools. Many of them are old and have no comments: https://github.com/droolsjbpm/drools/pulls Best regards, Mattias ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Mark Proctor" <mproctor(a)codehaus.org&gt; > To: "Rules Dev List" <rules-dev(a)lists.jboss.org&gt; > Sent: Thursday, 14 February, 2013 4:43:19 PM > Subject: Re: [rules-dev] Github commit rights cleanup > > On 14 Feb 2013, at 14:18, Esteban Aliverti < > esteban.aliverti(a)gmail.com > wrote: > > Since the time we started using github I've always preferred the > pull-request mechanism instead of the direct commit.
