You're complaining about how somebody made a fix that they wouldn't |
| 32 |
have had to make but for the commit you made without consulting with |
| 33 |
them. |

|
| 35 |
It is a bit like crashing into your neighbor's parked car and then |
| 36 |
complaining that they didn't do a good job cleaning up the glass on |
| 37 |
the sidewalk the next day. |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
Courts call that having unclean hands - if you cut your foot on that |
| 40 |
glass you'd have a hard time suing them for it, even in the US where |
| 41 |
you can sue just about anybody for anything. |
