Why shouldn't this be upstreamed?
- pxc 4y agoI assume folks downvoted this because they figured it was asking about Ruby or Bundler as upstream projects. But looking at it from a perspective where Nixpkgs is the upstream: what does this introduce that would be unwelcome in Nixpkgs' bundlerEnv, or perhaps situated so it can share code with the existing implementations?
- aendruk 4y agoI just found it presumptuous. Who ever said it shouldn’t be upstreamed? Trialing new designs in your own space is a pretty common pattern and there’s ample history of good ideas being adopted upstream once proven. Or sometimes you just might not have the energy for it. It’s okay for your gift to the world to merely be available, without pressure to go farther.
