Open PRs transferred from Orange repo with history rewritten to remove original author

[cannonpalms]

Hi,

Can I ask what happened to PRs such as (#18, #24) when they were moved over to this repo? The original author no longer appears anywhere, not even their sign-off trailers. @erdrix / @juldrixx now appear as the author of these commits.

Thanks,
Cannon

Hi,
Yes, I'm sorry about that ...

We wanted to go as fast as possible on the new repo and integrate all remaining open PRs because they were open for so long, that the easiest approach was to : copy/paste the PRs changes > review / fix > publish

And we can't do that on the Orange repo due to lack of rights on the repo.

In the last PR (#4), I tried to fix this by cherry-pick @genehynson's changes, it is not elegant but at least he appears in the contributors !

Again really sorry for this, we wanted to go fast to boost operator activity, maybe we were wrong :/

Thanks for the explanation - no worries. I appreciate the effort both of you are making to get these PRs merged! It's really exciting to see the project moving forward. We're looking forward to making more contributions in the near future 😃

Thanks for the response. How you went about this is understandable. Forks on GH are a bit of a mess.
