Hi Junio/Yadav, It's been more than a year since I opened a PR to git-gui upstream (https://github.com/prati0100/git-gui/pull/91). I pinged several times, but it looks like nobody's home. Is it possible to accept it to git nevertheless? This is an annoying issue, and the fix is trivial. Thanks! - Orgad On Wed, Feb 1, 2023 at 7:22 PM Junio C Hamano <gitster@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Orgad, thanks for a patch. > Yadav, this came to git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, so I'm forwarding. > > cf.
