General observation:
From an outsider’s perspective, it appears there was a migration from
Subversion to Git without a corresponding shift in workflow. Many team
members seem stuck in a "Subversion mentality" -- the idea that
branches are expensive or merging is difficult -- none of which
applies to Git.
First, keep in mind that nearly everything I do is single commits.
In tortoisesvn:
- mark 6 repositories in explorer and click update. All repositories
will be updated.
In tortoisegit:
- pull, stash window, rebase, stash pop prompt per repository.
Just with the update you are already a two dozen of clicks in.
Unfortunately, the FPC project seems to have stalled since the
migration, and there is no clear consensus on how to properly leverage
these new [2026] tools. Given that, I don't believe there is much more
I can contribute at this stage. I’ll stay on the sidelines for now and
hope for the best. And yes, I'm still happy to triage/review Merge
Requests where I can. Could we at least get some triage labels added
to the fpcsource project, as I suggested in the proposal?
Always the my way or the highway attitude, all along the way implying
the opponents are Neanderthals for their efforts to engage with you.
Typical.
