Sustainability and progress #1357

Description

With this issue I want to catch your attention to the fact that the development of pygit2 depends very much on your contributions.

As maintainer I do the following things:

  • Review and merge pull requests. Occasionally there is a follow-up to a pull request where I do some further changes.
  • Upgrade to new versions of libgit2 or Python.
  • Releasing new versions of pygit2.
  • Keep the build system and CI working.
  • On rare occasions I pick up an issue or do some improvements by my own initiative.

This is the baseline, and it means that:

  • New features are implemented by contributors through pull requests.
  • The list of issues keeps piling up.

There are 2 important ways you can help the project with your time:

  • Keep sending pull requests.
  • Help with issues, specially helpful is to create a pull request that fixes an issue. But sometimes it's just to answer a question or help reproducing a bug.

If not with time, the other way to help is with money, so I've more time to spend in the project.
I've reviewed my sponsor page, hopefully you will find a tier that fits you.

I'm as well available for contract, since I'm a freelancer, to topics related to pygit2 (and others not related to pygit2). Just drop me an email at jdavid.ibp@gmail.com
