============
|
|
|
|
git-multimail is an open-source project, built by volunteers. We would
|
|
welcome your help!
|
|
|
|
The current maintainers are `Matthieu Moy <http://matthieu-moy.fr>`__ and
|
|
`Michael Haggerty <https://github.com/mhagger>`__.
|
|
|
|
Please note that although a copy of git-multimail is distributed in
|
|
the "contrib" section of the main Git project, development takes place
|
|
in a separate `git-multimail repository on GitHub`_.
|
|
|
|
Whenever enough changes to git-multimail have accumulated, a new
|
|
code-drop of git-multimail will be submitted for inclusion in the Git
|
|
project.
|
|
|
|
We use the GitHub issue tracker to keep track of bugs and feature
|
|
requests, and we use GitHub pull requests to exchange patches (though,
|
|
if you prefer, you can send patches via the Git mailing list with CC
|
|
to the maintainers). Please sign off your patches as per the `Git
|
|
project practice
|
|
<https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/Documentation/SubmittingPatches#L234>`__.
|
|
|
|
Please vote for issues you would like to be addressed in priority
|
|
(click "add your reaction" and then the "+1" thumbs-up button on the
|
|
GitHub issue).
|
|
|
|
General discussion of git-multimail can take place on the main `Git
|
|
mailing list`_.
|
|
|
|
Please CC emails regarding git-multimail to the maintainers so that we
|
|
don't overlook them.

Help needed: testers/maintainer for specific environments/OS
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The current maintainer uses and tests git-multimail on Linux with the
|
|
Generic environment. More testers, or better contributors are needed
|
|
to test git-multimail on other real-life setups:
|
|
|
|
* Mac OS X, Windows: git-multimail is currently not supported on these
|
|
platforms. But since we have no external dependencies and try to
|
|
write code as portable as possible, it is possible that
|
|
git-multimail already runs there and if not, it is likely that it
|
|
could be ported easily.
|
|
|
|
Patches to improve support for Windows and OS X are welcome.
|
|
Ideally, there would be a sub-maintainer for each OS who would test
|
|
at least once before each release (around twice a year).
|
|
|
|
* Gerrit, Stash, Gitolite environments: although the testsuite
|
|
contains tests for these environments, a tester/maintainer for each
|
|
environment would be welcome to test and report failure (or success)
|
|
on real-life environments periodically (here also, feedback before
|
|
each release would be highly appreciated).
