Subject: git-for-windows supporting public shaming and repressing community's opinion
Date: Tue, 16 Jun 2020 16:28:03 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAMWmj-w3Z4176kvNi3GQTfCSDBzMMay33ki4xmdPwC3sFqbdzA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Recently I've been blocked from the git-for-windows Github repository
because of this
(https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2674#issuecomment-643795833)
comment. At the same time the following user was not blocked and his
comment hasn't been marked "off-topic" until the issue was closed to
"only collaborators" due to the high rate of people disagreeing with
the motivations of the issue.

It is appalling that the repo's maintainers kept this comment and
allowed the user to continue interacting, while suppressing and
blocking users who were on-topic, having a civil, respectful
discussion but happened to disagree with the issue's author (dscho -
https://github.com/dscho) reasons.
I am sending this message in the git mailing list because the
git-for-windows project is very closely related to it and because I
wasn't even able to defend myself there.
I don't even want to be unblocked from that repo, as this is the way
things are done there. But all of you should know what's happening and
be aware that "community" doesn't mean what it once used to. Now it's
just "people who agree with PC reasons for doing stuff".
