    Being shouted at in a mailing-list for fixing a bug doesn’t sound like fun.

    What’s that a reference to?

    • Some instances of one of the mercurial devs being a bully. It was a long time ago and I can’t remember the alias of the dev, but I do remember they had merge or commit rights - whatever those are called in mercurial. It felt like they had their own Linus but different. Whether they are still active or whether they still are like that, I dunno. Certainly hope they changed.

      Dunno if the git mailing list was as toxic. Didn’t investigate that.
