Hi Danh,

I share that distaste. However, is it really productive to bring that up
here?

You know what I also hate? I also hate vulnerabilities, and find it
_really_ taxing and tiring to work on them. Yet I frequently find myself
focusing on security bug fixes. Why? Because it's important.

In this instance, while there's no love lost on CMake from my side, I do
see tremendous benefits in having support for it in Git, in particular in
supporting Windows-based developers instead of treating them like
third-class citizens.

You had so many good and helpful comments and suggestions how to improve
the CMake patches, maybe we can have more of those?

Thank you,
Dscho
