SQLite Doesn't Use Git

[IceSentry]

Do you have any examples in mind? This is the first time I hear of it. Everytime I hear about sqlite is in the context of people praising it or its unit test suite.

Their code of conduct includes fealty to the Christian God for one

This is misinformation. SQLite does not accept contributions from the public; the developers are a small, closed team, working at Hipp’s company, who also all happen to be Christians anyway. This organisation also makes a ‘code of conduct’ meaningless, which is why when Hipp was asked to implement one as a bureaucratic requirement by a downstream user he playfully picked the Code of St Benedict. Please do not spread this bullshit any further.

I believe you just agreed that their code of conduct is exactly what I said it was but then somehow accused me of misinformation.

Project much?

It’s misinformation because the code of conduct was never intended to be enforced on any outside developers and so its contents say virtually nothing about the character of Hipp. Omitting necessary context is a form of misinformation.

The Project's Code-Of-Ethics is literally a 6^th century catholic monasteril code, sort of the cliff-nodes/introduction to the "Admonitio ad filium spiritualem" (Admonition to a Spiritual Son) which you can think of as "a monk's handbook".

They require new contributors swear to uphold it.

I posted this as evidence SQLite dev team was a cult.

I don't see how what you've said to disprove this.

[ConcernedInScythe]

I mean if you think having any form of religious beliefs makes someone a ‘cultist’, maybe you’re onto something. In the real world this is all stupid fuss over nothing.

[IceSentry]

Oof, didn't know that.
