Redis gets contributions from Redis Labs and Amazon. Although it tends to take a very long time for PRs to get merged.
Its one of the reasons behind my fork KeyDB which coincidentally got its initial traction from a HN post [1]

- gus_massa 7y agoIIRC it started as a guy eating pizza in front of the sea. Later, when it got traction, he made his own company around the project and got external support of big companies. I guess the long times to merge are because it is a very opinionated project. (But I'm not using it or following the details.) If you agree with his opinion you will be happy. If you disagree you will be unhappy. The nice part of open source is that if you disagree, you can fork the project.
- stevekemp 7y agoI love the redis service, and the people, but you're not wrong about the slow PR process. I went through the source to start correct spelling mistakes, and submitted my first pull request back in April. Where it has languished ever since. Some open pull requests date back 5+ years, with zero comments. I'd love to help close/comment on them, but it seems that there is little interest in such cleanup.
- jdsully 7y agoIf you ever have the time I’d appreciate any help you van give with KeyDB. It’s an attempt to accelerate progress in the Redis universe. https://github.com/JohnSully/KeyDB https://github.com/JohnSully/KeyDB
- stevekemp 7y agoI'm unlikely to contribute to your project, because I don't use it. But here is a sample pull-request: https://github.com/antirez/redis/pull/6058 https://github.com/antirez/redis/pull/6058 Looking, briefly, I see there are the same kinds of typos present, presumably from when you created your fork. e.g. "opeation" in src/blocked.c
