Highlights from Git 2.50
The open source Git project just released Git 2.50. Here is GitHub’s look at some of the most interesting features and changes introduced since last time.
Potential Service Disruptions Amid Current National Circumstances
| Sonorous Arts
Due to the current national situation, there is a possibility of internet disruptions. We're continuing offline work and will keep users informed throughout.
Hi friends!
I want to tell you all about a new thing I'm trying, where I'll accept bounties to work on specific features or bug fixes for Sharkey. If there's something you really want implemented, then you can make a donation and I'll prioritize that work over whatever other ticket I was going to work on.
To be clear, this is an agreement to work on a particular project, not a promise to finish it!
I'll dedicate a certain amount of time to the work based on the size of the donation, and if I finish the work - then great! If not, I'll upload my progress to branch to either finish later or hand off to another interested party. I may choose to complete the work anyway if it's something that I also want, but that's not a gaurantee!
Pricing is in lose terms because tracking my hours or comtting to deadlines will take all the fun out of everything. Sorry if that's an issue, but I'm not willing to negotiate on this. I will
make sure not to "count it" if I don't actually get much work done, so don't worry about picking a bad week and wasting your money. If I don't manage enough work when I initally plan to, then I'll just save my progress and resume when I have more time.
Time slots are broken down like this:
• $20 - I work on my lunch break. This is usually about an hour, so I probably won't complete a whole ticket unless it's something small.
• $30 - I dedicate an evening or two. The exact number of hours varies, but it's usually 2-4 per evening. I'll aim for at least 3 hours in total.
• $50 - It's my weekend project. Again, my availability varies - but sometimes I spend 12+ hours between Saturday and Sunday.
• $100 - This is my focus for the week. I won't devote any more Sharkey time than I would normally, but all of that time is devoted to this work item.
If this sounds like something you'd like, then please reply or send a DM! For this first trial phase, I've picked a curated list of tickets that I'm willing to work on. Assuming everything goes well, I'll add more options and open up the possibility of working on brand new ideas too. I hope this can be a good deal for everyone!

Clarifications and Disclaimers:
1. As stated above, this is not a promise to complete any work item!
I'll put effort in - that's the only gaurantee.
2. This is not a contract of employment or payment for services.
3. If something "important" comes up, then I may pause your work item to focus on that. Think urgent bugs, security issues, or project management responsibilities. This won't count against the promised effort.
4. If multiple donations are made around the same time, then I'll complete them in order of submission.
5. If a work item is completed before I get to your request, then I'll offer the chance to select another ticket instead.
6. You're welcome to ask how long I expect a particular item to take! I may not answer in hours, but I can give a relative estimate of complexity.

Wrote this nearly two years ago, after dealing with some rather painful #javascript development in my last job. Might be useful to anyone who has to deal with this.
