Antonin Delpeuch sent a patch adding a new technical documentation page that describes the Git project's existing governance. His rationale is that social structures and conventions are not obvious to newcomers, that misunderstandings about expectations can cause friction, and that improvements are hard to identify if current practice is not written down. The text describes how the project works now without claiming to set that in stone as policy.

Junio Hamano's first review was mostly about the draft's content and form. He asked that the lines be wrapped, since one long line per paragraph is hard to discuss in source form. He asked whether the document should also cover the Discord and IRC chat channels, pointing to git-scm.com/community.

On Git for Windows, he wondered what the project calls itself, perhaps a friendly fork, and suggested gitforwindows.org as a more official reference. He also noted that Git is a member project of the Software Freedom Conservancy, which acts as its fiscal sponsor.

The patch is at its first version, and no further reviewers have commented in the excerpts.
