Subject: [NonGNU ELPA] New package proposal: git-modes
Date: Mon, 18 Oct 2021 20:08:35 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <875ytuyzmk.fsf@bernoul.li> (raw)
Hello,
I would like to propose the addition of "git-modes" to NonGNU Elpa. It
provides three simple major-modes gitattributes-mode, gitconfig-mode and
gitignore-mode.
These modes/libraries used to be (and still are) distributes as three
separate packages on Melpa but I think it would be best to distribute
them as a single package. I've asked Steve Purcell (Melpa maintainer)
about it and he agrees. The three existing packages will be replaced
with the "git-modes" packages on Melpa.
A "git-modes.el" library that merely loads the other libraries existed
for a long time already. Users don't actually have to load that, or
the individual libraries for that matter, because autoloading adds the
appropriate entries to auto-mode-alist.
Adding to GNU ELPA is not an option because one of the main authors
is against assigning copyright to the FSF as a matter of principle.
"git-modes" can be found at https://github.com/magit/git-modes. You
can git-clone from that URL to avoid non-free javascript. Note that
I am preparing for the addition to NonGNU ELPA on the "next" branch.
Cheers,
Jonas
