We should promote people to push forward things to mainline. I clearly agree with the goal of promoting people to push forward things to mainline but it has to be done by openness and reactivity of mainteners, not by technical means. But let looks at the diffstat of this commit: include/Makefile.am | 1 + include/ulogd/Makefile.am | 3 +-- include/ulogd/ulogd.h | 2 ++ 3 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) That's really not a big work for anyone to arrive to the same result. An other point is that compiling outside of tree require you to maintain your own build system which is quiet boring. Thus, using git to maintain you own forked branch is the easiest way to keep your work hidden and/or non public. IMHO, this patch does not change anything about external contribution.
