46 Pull requests on github

Added by guilhem lettron at 2012-06-05 10:44 am

Hit all,

I don't know if I am the only one that think this : ChiliProject is a good project and I was happy to switch from Redmine.. but it drop behind Redmine in term of features last months.

At the same time, ChiliProject github project has 46 pull requests in stand by.. that is quite incredible.

I don't say that all this are good patches, but in term of community, let this without any answers or any comment isn't good.

ChiliProject was the "community" fork where anybody can do patches (on the contrary of Redmine).

What can we do to fix this ?

I don't blame anybody, I just want to see this project at its best.

Hi Guilhem,

Thanks for your concern. We've (Holger and I) been pretty busy with university those last 3-4 months, this should change pretty quickly. In addition, we haven't totally been sitting on our hands, there's actually some we've merged in this time :-)

But you are right, we should try to focus on answering and reviewing pull requests more quickly.

It would be great if you could pull more frequently. ChiliProject is so great project, but my company misses some features already present in redmine (and I would really hate to switch back to redmine). But anyway great job so far guys :-)

Do you mean review pull requests more frequently or pull features from Redmine more frequently? I'm afraid the later is most of the time not worth the effort except for smaller things, the codebases have diverged enough that most of the time fixing merge conflicts takes more time than just seeking "inspiration" there if needed.

Good to hear, thanks :-)

@Felix: Is it conceivable when the API will be stable enough so that others might check, if the pull request could get merged or fixed to match the last changes to the code base? Maybe some users could test that on a branch and merge the pulls there?

ciao,
Chris

Which API do you mean?

Regarding involvement participation, we're happy about anyone reviewing the pull requests, confirming the problem and the solution, making sure there are tests, and so on. If someone wants to get involved and doesn't quite know where to start, feel free to contact us on IRC or in the forums and we can point you to some things we'd consider low-hanging fruits.
