Please remember to copy the list on all replies, using “reply all”.

I don’t see any PRs on https://github.com/jralls/gtk-osx-build. Where did you send it?

Please remember to CC the list on all replies.

Huh, I’d forgotten about that repo. Not a good choice for PRs because I don’t get notifications about them, either by mail or on my dashboard. Better to use my repo.

The structure is a bit weird because of the history of gtk-osx. When Richard Hult started it he created it separately from Gnome, and for a long time the Gnome folks were passively to aggressively hostile about building on anything other than Linux. That changed a few years ago when some of them discovered Macs, and I was invited to move the projects to Gnome and given push privs there. But git.gnome.org doesn’t have any way to handle PRs, so I kept my Github repos open and push everything to both Gnome and Github.

The Gnome Github mirrors are just pushes from git.gnome.org, run by a commit hook. There’s a FAQ about them at https://wiki.gnome.org/Sysadmin/GitHub, the first of which says that PRs aren’t accepted. We’ll see if anyone notices yours and my comment on it.

There's a thread from just a few days ago on desktop-devel-list [1] about changing to a system where it's the maintainer's choice whether to accept pull requests or not; so I guess it's up to you, John.

If you want to get notified about pull requests in the Gnome mirror as well, you can "watch" the repo with the button at the upper right.
