Why was Borg forked from Attic?
|
||||
Borg was created in may 2015 in response to the difficulty of
|
||||
getting new merge requests and larger changes incorporated into
|
||||
attic. more details can be found in the fairly long discussion
|
||||
in attic issue queue (found in `ticket 217
|
||||
<https://github.com/jborg/attic/issues/217>`_) that led to the fork.
|
||||
|
||||
Borg intends to be:
|
||||
|
||||
* simple:
|
||||
* as simple as possible, but no simpler
|
||||
* do the right thing by default, but offer options
|
||||
* open:
|
||||
* welcome feature requests
|
||||
* accept pull requests of good quality and coding style
|
||||
* give feedback on PRs that can't be accepted "as is"
|
||||
* discuss openly, don't work in the dark
|
||||
* changing:
|
||||
* do not break compatibility accidentally, without a good reason
|
||||
or without warning
|
||||
* Borg is not backwards-compatible with attic
|
||||
* major versions may not be compatible with older releases
