You really should tell us what the software is so we can know to avoid it or perhaps find your changes, fork the project and reapply them then push to have distorts switch to this new version. Worked well for a number of projects where developers are jerks and don't allow other talented and dedicated contributors to participate.

Agree. This is an open source project and I'd like to know the name of it. Not for public shaming but so I can know what to avoid.

      Damn, what a dick move. Who is this Hannes von Haugwitz?

        I have found 8 commits (https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/logcheck/logcheck.git/log/?qt=author&q=gaddis https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/logcheck/logcheck.git/log/?q...). Seven of those change 1-2 lines, the other updates the copyright file. As far as I can see: - 6a4bf69 has not been reverted - d4a97c5 has been reverted in 8050b2d - 5f7da05 has been reverted in ccc183d (webmin) - cf5e9d3 has been reverted in 792a996 (webmin) - c6634da has not been reverted, he is still listed in debian/copyright. - 82f8600 has not been reverted (was extended in f24650f) - 7f8efa8 has not been reverted - e4f4889 has not been reverted So, out of 8 commits, 3 have been reverted. The 2 webmin reverts were followed by deletion of the whole webmin file the same day (5785901). I don't see how three reverts are "a flood of notification e-mails" or that "The lead developer had reverted every single commit I had made." But I agree that the commit messages of those reverts should have contained a reason. Obviously something went wrong. But I don't have enough information to call it a dick move.

        It's a dick move to revert and not tell the person why it was done even after they ask.

Want to know it too. Maybe someone of us know the Dev, and could ask why? Or even simply have the Option, someone to fork and maintain it well. /Sorry for Bad engl., written at Phone. Be patience :-)
