add a Code of Conduct document
We've never had a formally written Code of Conduct document. Though it
has been discussed off and on over the years, for the most part the
behavior on the mailing list has been good enough that nobody felt the
need to push one forward.
However, even if there aren't specific problems now, it's a good idea to
have a document:
- it puts everybody on the same page with respect to expectations.
This might avoid poor behavior, but also makes it easier to handle
it if it does happen.
- it publicly advertises that good conduct is important to us and will
be enforced, which may make some people more comfortable with
joining our community
- it may be a good time to cement our expectations when things are
quiet, since it gives everybody some distance rather than focusing
on a current contentious issue
This patch adapts the Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct. As opposed
to writing our own from scratch, this uses common and well-accepted
language, and strikes a good balance between illustrating expectations
and avoiding a laundry list of behaviors. It's also the same document
used by the Git for Windows project.
The text is taken mostly verbatim from:
https://www.contributor-covenant.org/version/1/4/code-of-conduct.html
I also stole a very nice introductory paragraph from the Git for Windows
version of the file.
There are a few subtle points, though:
- the document refers to "the project maintainers". For the code, we
generally only consider there to be one maintainer: Junio C Hamano.
But for dealing with community issues, it makes sense to involve
more people to spread the responsibility. I've listed the project
committee address of git@sfconservancy.org as the contact point.
- the document mentions banning from the community, both in the intro
paragraph and in "Our Responsibilities". The exact mechanism here is
left vague. I can imagine it might start with social enforcement
(not accepting patches, ignoring emails) and could escalate to
technical measures if necessary (asking vger admins to block an
address). It probably make sense _not_ to get too specific at this
point, and deal with specifics as they come up.

Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our standards of
|
|
|
|
|
acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in
|
|
|
|
|
response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive,

|
or harmful.

add a Code of Conduct document
We've never had a formally written Code of Conduct document. Though it
has been discussed off and on over the years, for the most part the
behavior on the mailing list has been good enough that nobody felt the
need to push one forward.
However, even if there aren't specific problems now, it's a good idea to
have a document:
- it puts everybody on the same page with respect to expectations.
This might avoid poor behavior, but also makes it easier to handle
it if it does happen.
- it publicly advertises that good conduct is important to us and will
be enforced, which may make some people more comfortable with
joining our community
- it may be a good time to cement our expectations when things are
quiet, since it gives everybody some distance rather than focusing
on a current contentious issue
This patch adapts the Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct. As opposed
to writing our own from scratch, this uses common and well-accepted
language, and strikes a good balance between illustrating expectations
and avoiding a laundry list of behaviors. It's also the same document
used by the Git for Windows project.
The text is taken mostly verbatim from:
https://www.contributor-covenant.org/version/1/4/code-of-conduct.html
I also stole a very nice introductory paragraph from the Git for Windows
version of the file.
There are a few subtle points, though:
- the document refers to "the project maintainers". For the code, we
generally only consider there to be one maintainer: Junio C Hamano.
But for dealing with community issues, it makes sense to involve
more people to spread the responsibility. I've listed the project
committee address of git@sfconservancy.org as the contact point.
- the document mentions banning from the community, both in the intro
paragraph and in "Our Responsibilities". The exact mechanism here is
left vague. I can imagine it might start with social enforcement
(not accepting patches, ignoring emails) and could escalate to
technical measures if necessary (asking vger admins to block an
address). It probably make sense _not_ to get too specific at this
point, and deal with specifics as they come up.

comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are

## Scope
|
|
|
|
|
|
2020-12-28 18:17:34 +01:00
|
|
|
This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when
|
|
|
|
|
an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
|
|
|
|
|
Examples of representing our community include using an official e-mail address,
|
|
|
|
|
posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
|
|
|
|
|
representative at an online or offline event.

## Enforcement
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
|
2020-12-28 18:17:34 +01:00
|
|
|
reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement at
|
2019-09-26 09:20:46 +02:00
|
|
|
git@sfconservancy.org, or individually:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com>
|
|
|
|
|
- Christian Couder <christian.couder@gmail.com>
|
|
|
|
|
- Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
|
|
|
|
|
- Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2020-12-28 18:17:34 +01:00
|
|
|
All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the
|
|
|
|
|
reporter of any incident.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Enforcement Guidelines
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Community leaders will follow these Community Impact Guidelines in determining
|
|
|
|
|
the consequences for any action they deem in violation of this Code of Conduct:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 1. Correction
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Community Impact**: Use of inappropriate language or other behavior deemed
|
|
|
|
|
unprofessional or unwelcome in the community.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Consequence**: A private, written warning from community leaders, providing
|
|
|
|
|
clarity around the nature of the violation and an explanation of why the
|
|
|
|
|
behavior was inappropriate. A public apology may be requested.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 2. Warning
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Community Impact**: A violation through a single incident or series
|
|
|
|
|
of actions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Consequence**: A warning with consequences for continued behavior. No
|
|
|
|
|
interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction with
|
|
|
|
|
those enforcing the Code of Conduct, for a specified period of time. This
|
|
|
|
|
includes avoiding interactions in community spaces as well as external channels
|
|
|
|
|
like social media. Violating these terms may lead to a temporary or
|
|
|
|
|
permanent ban.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 3. Temporary Ban
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Community Impact**: A serious violation of community standards, including
|
|
|
|
|
sustained inappropriate behavior.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Consequence**: A temporary ban from any sort of interaction or public
|
|
|
|
|
communication with the community for a specified period of time. No public or
|
|
|
|
|
private interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction
|
|
|
|
|
with those enforcing the Code of Conduct, is allowed during this period.
|
|
|
|
|
Violating these terms may lead to a permanent ban.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 4. Permanent Ban
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Community Impact**: Demonstrating a pattern of violation of community
|
|
|
|
|
standards, including sustained inappropriate behavior, harassment of an
|
|
|
|
|
individual, or aggression toward or disparagement of classes of individuals.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Consequence**: A permanent ban from any sort of public interaction within
|
|
|
|
|
the community.
