Such +patches get less attention from developers and can be mishandled or not +reviewed properly. Please use emails instead. + Other services like GitLab, repo.or.cz or self-hosted setups are of course accepted as well, 'git fetch ' works the same on all of them. We recommend GitHub because it is free, easy to use, has been proven to be reliable and has a really good web GUI.
