Well, the friction is about Debbugs. Maybe I repeat myself: Debbugs is initially thought to be a bug tracker system and not a patch track system. Do not take me wrong, I am not trying to convince you. Instead, I am just trying to explain that email workflow is not so much different and the main annoyances you point come from Debbugs and not emails, somehow. :-) On Thu, 14 Sep 2023 at 10:51, Edouard Klein wrote: > Before anybody tries to explain to me that git send-email is easier than > I think, what you have to beat is: Well, the complete workflow you have in mind is: 1. $ git remote add guix-patches WHATEVER #only once 2. $ git push -u guix-patches master:some-unique-name 3. =E2=80=A6 send a Pull Request =E2=80=A6 #on= ly once Instead, the email workflow somehow reads: a. =E2=80=A6 send an Email to guix-patches@gnu.org #only once b. $ git config sendemail.to 12345@debbugs.gnu.org #only once c. $ git send-email --base=3Dauto -v origin and the order is flipped: a =3D=3D 3 #only once b =3D=3D 1 #only once c =3D=3D 2 Yeah, the order appears awkward. But that=E2=80=99s because of Debbugs; els= e it would not be very different. The advantage is that contributing does not require from you to have a public Git repository, it requires from you only an email address. The drawback (plural!), bah you already know them. :-) Again, thank you for your feedback. Cheers, simon
