In addition to those GitHub spammers, another bunch of stupid Chinese companies are scanning "git log" of torvalds/linux.git, days and nights. You got a patch merged into the mainline by Greg K.H, and you have a Chinese sign-off name?
Congrats! You'll get automated spams immediately: We offers top job opportunities for experts like you (lol, I don't even believe myself is one), blabla.
EVERY SINGLE TIME. 😡
@niconiconi it actually makes sense though. even if it's just adding a case statement or fixing documentation spelling, daring submit a patch to mainline proves something. you know, not everyone spots the chance :doge:
@niconiconi as far as the campaign cost is concerned, any remote correlation is good enough. I haven't received these for a while though, which kinda saddens me when there're only U.S. Navy Fund popping up.
@ghost yeah, it doesn't cost anything for them to send spams anyway...
