Hi Brad,

We prefer small changesets so pull requests are easier to review. Anyway from time to time some abusers post PRs with 5k files [1] (we should start punishing these somehow).

Just proceed with the PR normally, as Neil suggests. We'll deal with it.

Thanks & kind regards,
Antonio

The ONLY reason I ask is that I'm doing a LOT of extremely simple changes
like updating the license headers in a LOT of files. Also, I didn't want to
imply that I push directly to the CND branch.. I just was thinking it would
be helpful if I was able to commit my pull requests for license header
changes. Hopefully, my intentions are more clean.

I'm simply trying to keep the workload down for the committers.

But, I can certainly continue on with the "pull reques and wait" model if
that is preferable.

C/C++ CND module..

Would it be inappropriate to ask for GitHub access to help with this? I
can
promise to only keep my check-ins to license related work on CND or other
restrictions the team decides..

Would this be a reasonable request?

Why?  Only ASF committers have write access to the repository.  That
might be possible, but committers also rarely push to the repository
directly.  Vast majority of updates are done via pull requests.  Is
there a specific concern you have about putting in pull requests
against the CND branch?

Best wishes,

Neil
