It's definitely a PR stunt
sec
oh god the hentai cat
Microsoft has been a bully buyer since foundation.
To expect them to change in a matter of a few years is a big lie.
so i should delete my account
You do you
I'm highly suspicious though.
lol
just joined #github on freenode
Github was an early pusher of "Code of Conduct" cancer, I don't feel sorry for their fate.
Also, why not mercurial? I find it superior to git in almost every way.
@DanielKO I find more concern in the community around GitHub at this point than the service itself. I remember the code of conduct crap.
@DanielKO One of the reasons I don't praise them. Another being I'm not on board with copyleft
Git originating from a copyleft group
iirc
But they don't force you to any of those things (copyleft, code of conduct), tho.
*stops using github*
Git came from Linus, he's against copyleft. You're not well informed in the subject.
He regrets it.
It's impractical to relicense it, with tens of thousands of contributors that would need to be contacted.
Git was born out of a shitshow, where Linus wanted everyone to use his friend's proprietary tool, BitKeeper.
Git is great. You don't want to go back to svn.
Hg is better.
@DanielKO lol that is a retelling of history. Bitkeeper changed their license
@DanielKO anyone that says X source control system is better than the other when they are both blatently similar is either trolling or clueless.
Also SVN is better for some projects than Git
Yes, SVN has its use cases, but I came not across them.
Dude, I saw the BitKeeper shitshow unfold.
The creator got butthurt because the community didn't want to use his proprietary client. So they started reverse engineering it with telnet. Then he got so pissed off, he revoked the free license he had granted to the Linux project.
when did that happen?
hasn'
t bit keeper been around since forever?
Alleging they broke the EULA against reverse engineering when installing the client. But since they didn't use the client to reverse engineer, no license was breached.
Right before git was created.
BitKeeper revoked the license, Linux development shut down for a month, while Linus was writing git.
but it's open source now, right?
