Kind of funny reading through the commit log. Each commit has like 10–20 lines of commit message and then changes 1–5 lines of code.

Which definitely makes sense for a project like DWM (no feature development, and the source code is basically a public API), but still kind of bizarre to look at.

This is how it should be if you don’t add new features (as you said), but fix bugs. You have to explain what you did so other people understand without asking you, just by looking at the commit message.

Many people do commit messages wrong and include way less information than they should have. Suckless apps are a prime example of how development should be, although I don’t use most of them because they lack the features I want, ironically. I used dmenu extensively in the past but replaced it by rofi. I used st but apparently Konsole is also fine for my use now, as I don’t remember what made me use st in the first place.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
