So, are you saying that both Lenovo (that say in manual for x280 that in select countries it ships with Ubuntu) and Ubuntu (That here https://certification.ubuntu.com/hardware/201801-26057/ https://certification.ubuntu.com/hardware/201801-26057/ claim "certified pre-install for Ubuntu.") are lying?
If you are using Linux you are using Linux kernel that is managed by git. Microsoft contributes to git.
- bjpbakker 8y ago> Linux kernel that is managed by git. Microsoft contributes to git This is a little misleading. MS does not contribute to git for Linux development. Instead, they only provide windows specific patches (AFAICT, would like to be proven wrong). Their GVfs [0] is windows only, and they maintain a fork of Git with "microsoft specific patches" [1]. [0] - https://github.com/Microsoft/GVFS https://github.com/Microsoft/GVFS [1] - https://github.com/Microsoft/git https://github.com/Microsoft/git (edit: formatting)
- detaro 8y agoMicrosoft had a "look at what we did for git last year" post in january, most of that seems OS-independent performance work: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/devops/2018/01/11/microsofts-performance-contributions-to-git-in-2017/ https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/devops/2018/01/11/microsoft...
- bjpbakker 8y agoYes some of that work also improves Git on other systems. All of those patches however were a pure necessity for them to implement GVfs.
