I'm doing it just for completions sake though, so this patch might fall into the abbys of branches for weeks or months now. >> I have no time to get into ruby debugging at the moment. > > We're all busy here, sending non-working patches does not help! I can only ask for help though. In some cases I don't get it, so I'm stuck for months at the same point, and because email does not really come with enough features, people sometimes start duplicating work (see python-dulwich), so I really like to call for help and give information in case someone really reads it. --=20 =E2=99=A5=E2=92=B6 ng0 -- https://www.inventati.org/patternsinthechaos/
