No. The problem is that alternatives suggested so far have been crap, |
| 22 |
and people focused on preaching and/or implementing random crap-based |
| 23 |
solutions without even stopping for a few minutes to consider what we |

GitHub works for us. GitHub works for our contributors. GitHub boosts |
| 27 |
our productivity, unlike those vain discussions. We don't have time for |
| 28 |
all this tin foil hat nonsense. |
