When I submitted this pull request, Github said there were no conflicts with the master, but now it is saying that there are conflicts in 4 files. It appears that these conflicts are a result of merging some changes from another pull request that preceded mine, from a user named asistex.

I notice that the merge from asistex's code was done on 23 October, and no action has yet been taken on my code, which is next in line. I have a question for whoever does the merging. Will you go ahead and merge my code in the HMG master, or are you waiting for me to resolve the conflicts?

The second commit was on 2020/07/25.

What was done:
1- remove the blanks spaces at the end of each line.
2- formatting the functions name of harbour to CamelCase.
3- remove the harbour warnings with the -w3 switch.

following the directives of the harbour itself.
For example the source code:
This file has conflict with your commit

SOURCE/h_monthcal.prg

this line

Code: Select all

   Local cParentForm , mVar , k := 0

was changed to this

Code: Select all

   Local cParentForm , mVar , k

That kind of warnings were over 500 in the hmg prg sources.

Before making a commit - pull resquest you should make a pull to get the latest changes. Perhaps the delay in merged the first pull request may have caused some kind of problem. However, conflicts should be resolved before the commit.

In my opinion there should be a clear directive from the hmg team to handle all these situations.

Beyond all this I will stop the commits (there is still some pull request pending) until I have more information.

I put these into an fork https://github.com/kcarmody/HMG of the main HMG Github source https://github.com/HMG-Official/, and submitted a pull request https://github.com/HMG-Official/HMG/pull/2 .

When I submitted this pull request, Github said there were no conflicts with the master, but now it is saying that there are conflicts in 4 files. It appears that these conflicts are a result of merging some changes from another pull request that preceded mine, from a user named asistex.

Most of the changes from that pull request were labeled "removed ending spces" or "Update <filename>". I checked a few of these changes and found that this project had not only removed spaces from ends of lines, but also removed variables that were declared but never used, and removed variable initializations that were not needed. Every file in SOURCE was changed.

I'm not sure why these changes were all made, as they do not affect any features and have almost no effect on performance. But in any event, they have made it harder to merge my code into the main HMG code. My code adds several new features.

HMG guardians are totally ignorant about GitHub issues.
You can't be a project leader if you don't know about collaborative tools.
It's time whether they learn GitHub to keep up to date, or pass the torch.
Otherwise HMG is in fact dead.

Just my not important oppinion.

i´m willing to work on it and this Year HMG start again using GitHub.

it just takes a little while for the whole thing to start rolling.

Yes, it certainly does take some time to learn Github. Most of the documentation is not very good, or tries to take you through a long process of learning commands rather than offering an easy to use interface. I spent quite a few frustrating days trying to deal with these obstacles.

Finally I found SourceTree, which I recommend to everyone using Github -- https://www.sourcetreeapp.com/. SourceTree also has the best documentation about the whole Github -- https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials ... cket-cloud .
