- oleganza 16y agoIt's not negative at all. It is a credit to Linus as a creator. Linus made a great tool and the command line UI is enough for him. Gitbox just makes his creation accessible to others and everybody wins.
- Hoff 16y agoPlease don't get defensive. Accept the feedback. Move on. And yes, whether it was intended or not, that statement can be inferred as a negative.
- JonnieCache 16y agoLinus did make git literally for himself, and by extension the kernel community. If you look at his quote about the name "Git," I think it portrays accurately the wry attitude of mock-antagonism linus feels around git: "I'm an egotistical bastard, and I name all my projects after myself. First Linux, now git." - https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Git_(software) https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Git_(software...
- mxcl 16y agoIt's only negative if you want to read it that way.
