I looked at https://github.com/prati0100/git-gui#contributing before including git-gui in that change, which says: Even though the project is hosted at GitHub, the development does not happen over GitHub Issues and Pull Requests. Instead, an email based workflow is used. The Git mailing list [git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx](mailto:git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) is where the patches are discussed and reviewed. As a bit of deja-vu when trying to find if that was outdated or not I found that you seemed to have had pretty much this exact exchange already with the git-gui maintainer at https://lore.kernel.org/git/20190924122306.bcwe37wlahjimve7@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ Which seems to have been followed-up by https://lore.kernel.org/git/pull.361.git.gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx/; I.e. you sent a git-gui change to this ML. Or do you mean that it should have been sent to this ML, Pratyush should have pulled it, and Junio would have pulled upstream after that?
