Please explain how you got there, because I'm at a loss. Both examples involve using the CLI. The GitHub version I ran through actually includes more CLI steps. How could that possibly have been my intention?
- diminoten 7y agoYour references to clicking repeatedly, and the general fact that github.com's innovation is the GUI it puts on top of a git workflow.
- colbyrussell 7y agoI'm mystified about what's going on right now. Both versions involve clicking. Both versions involve command-line steps. The difference is that the GitHub version requires more of both, needlessly. That's the point of what I wrote. That's the only point. I don't understand this context where I'm being forced to defend an argument that's been foisted upon me and that I never made and never even thought of trying to make.
- diminoten 7y agoI'm sorry you don't understand it, but you don't get to ignore the implications that spawn off of your argument just because they're inconvenient.
- colbyrussell 7y agoWhat? You get to imagine some bad argument that would make it most convenient for you, and then demand that I defend that argument, as if it were one that I wanted to make? This is what I'm responsible for? Dealing with someone who resorts to strawmanning the person/idea at the other end when challenged?
- diminoten 7y agoI'm not imagining it, and that's the problem you're running into. It's a consequence of what you said.

- dllthomas 7y agoIt's not a direct consequence of anything that was said. It's a possible implication - in the conversational sense of implication, not the logical sense - but those get to be disclaimed.
- diminoten 7y agoHis stance is literally that using a GUI is harder. That isn't a consequence, it's his core position.
- colbyrussell 7y agoIt's literally not my stance. And I've literally said that it's not my stance—in a comment (that should have never been necessary to begin with) meant to remove all doubt. And you know this. To continue saying otherwise (explicitly, even) is a case of outright intellectual dishonesty.
- diminoten 7y agoIt's you backing off of a claim you clearly now know is nonsense once someone challenged you on it.
- colbyrussell 7y agoMy phone number is listed on my home page. Please give me a call.
- dllthomas 7y agoThe patch version only involves clicking when sending an email with an attachment involves clicking, right?
