You haven't provided a branch, you haven't reviewed my implementation, you haven't tried it. You mentioned something about testing the performance, but then retracted from it. So, if you were planning to collaborate, now it would be a good time to mention how. > If you say you don't have time to spend on this, I don't see why I > should worry about testing this series of patches. I'm just clarifying how I'm planning to spend my time, specifically if you are not going to collaborate. What is snarky and nasty about any of these comments? I'm simply asking you if you are going to collaborate and how, because I don't see it, and what I'm going to do. You think that's snarkier than the comments above? Well, I disagree. But I don't blame you when you are snarky, nor do I think I should. > It is hardly the first time that your mails have been insulting, as > can be researched easily from in the public mailing list archives. Those who want to be insulted would get insulted. I asked a simple question "are you going to collaborate?", if you find that offensive, that's your right. > In light of the indignation when advised to keep the tone down a little, > it is probable that the mails were never put through the "would I be > insulted or hurt if I was the recipient of this?" test, as in "do you want > me to throw away my work?" when you literally asked us to throw away our > work. How did I ask you to throw away your work? I have asked multiple times now for you to provide a branch so that we can take a look and try it. I don't know of a better way to throw away code than to refuse to provide it, which is what you have been doing. So, if anybody can be blamed of trying to throw away code, it shouldn't be me. I know you will find the previous statement offensive, but it happens to be true. It is sad that you will concentrate on the statement, rather than the fact, and instead of providing the branch (which will help to avoid throwing away the code), and thus nullify the statement, you choose to be offended and complain about how offended you are. Well, I'm offended at how much you refuse to collaborate, and at how much disdain you throw at my code, but I'm not going to complain about me being offended; people get offended about all sorts of things. Why is why there's no law against offending people. Instead, I choose to do something positive about it and improve my code with your criticism (e.g. lack of tests), even if that criticism is rude and unwarranted. But that seems to mean nothing to you. > So unlike others, I do not ask you to change your tone, nor your > willingness to work with others. Instead, I prefer to do other things > instead. I guess that answers the question; you are not going to collaborate. Got it. I will not ask you again for a branch with the remote-hg code.
