>I am trying to contribute to Guile but I cannot figure out how I am supposed to do it. I submitted a pull request, but I cannot see the status of that request on cgit. Do we even use pull requests or do we do pushes? So I need to get put on the member list by filing a request for inclusion?

 

Where can people find this pull request?  Like, is this a ‘git request-pull’-style PR send by e-mail, a ‘git request-pull’-style PR that was formatted by ‘git request-pull’ but you forgot to send, a PR on an unofficial GitHub mirror that almost nobody looks at, some Savannah feature unknown to me, or ...

If with this you mean that people with contributions directly push it to the main branch: no.

No.

 

I have done contributions in the past without having an account on Savannah and without any kind of administration – I just send patches to guile-devel@gnu.org with a cover message.  (Or without cover message if it’s just a single patch.)
