...thing stopping people from working in branches in svn and merging from branches is easy. The advantage with git is that it's very easy to have your fork somewhere where no one else sees it and your changes get lost and forgotten. Your point about small incremental commits is also untrue. svn encourages small incremental commits and, more importantly, encourages small incremental pushes upstream. This is something we want to encourage: we don't want to make it easier for people to have private forks than it is to push them upstream. David

How do I best encourage maintainers to update the software they are responsible for in various repositories? Akema Yagi made sure kmod-jfs for CentOS 7 was updated amazingly fast which is greatly appreciated. On the other hand, I have requested updates of some other software packages and have heard absolutely nothing in months...

Hello, I was just thinking about how to encourage software developers to publish games for platforms other than Win32. All is about marketing - even though game is working perfectly under Linux/WINE (for example - Prey), game publisher won't give any information about it. I was thinking about a certificate or something for software publishers. Something like a small label that you can

The following example in ?dump.frames options(error = quote({dump.frames(to.file = TRUE); q()})) is useful for teaching the user how to save a frame dump when R encounters an error during non-interactive sessions. This command however causes an additional change that on encountering an error R exits with a 0 error status. Although it's just an example, it's an important one as it's

I read through the editorial. This is the one of the most mega-ultra-super-biased articles I've ever read. e.g. The authors encourage Baysian methods, and literally encourage subjective approaches. However, there's only one reference to robust methods and one reference to nonparametric methods, both of which are labelled as purely exploratory methods, which I regard as extremely

One thing that we are often blamed for is trying to stifle conversations and to discourage people from commenting / contributing / encouraging conversations. And that cant be further from the truth, really. We are all pro-community ( and when I say we, I mean everyone - including the contributors, developers, admins, users, abusers and hey upstream too ). However, one thing that does get in

If it's something that you need or want and it's not available in a repo that you currently use you can compile it yourself. I do that with a number of packages that are either newer or simply not available in the various

...SS, but doing so doesn't encourage the process. All that said, at the end of the day, I generally agree with what Yehui said as well. If you use roxygen2 and feel that it helps you to write good documentation, great! Use it. Thats ultimately not a statement about what kind of documentation it encourages. As a final thought, my personal view is that roxygen2 does not encourage good or bad documentation, but rather middling documentation. It encourages new users and those with major time or focus constraints to document things more than they would without it, which is good, but doesn't encourag...

Hi all, Today, we maintain a high bar for getting a new subproject into LLVM: first a subproject has to be built far enough along to “prove its worth” to be part of the LLVM monorepo (e.g. demonstrate community, etc). Once conceptually approved, it needs to follow all of the policies and practices expected by an LLVM subproject. This is problematic for a couple reasons: it implicitly means that
