microsoft / nugetninja Goto Github PK

This project popped up on my twitter feed this morning and after reading the readme, this appears to be doing the same thing as a well-known community project called Snitch.

Would it be possible to clarify how this is intended to differ from the community project and confirm whether or not Patrik was consulted prior to development?

I ask the latter because at least on the surface this appears to be directly competing with a community project and i'm sure we don't want all the .NET drama like we've had
before when Microsoft copied/competed against community projects.

My intention here is not to start the aforementioned drama but rather seek clarification and intent :)

• Radical (Always latest package and practice)
• Latest (Always latest package, won't add best practice attributes)
• Normal (Compatible package, will upgrade framework)
• Compatible (Compatible package, won't upgrade framework)
• Conservatism (Only upgrade deprecated package and package with vulnerabilities)
• Dry run (Do Nothing)

I'm sure your intentions are good, but please stop spamming repos with pull-requests, and create a process for maintainers to opt in to NugetNinja's pull-requests.

Most serious open-source projects have contributing guidelines, and the NugetNinja bot simply ignores the contribution guidelines set by the project maintainers.
