Just give pylova proper attribution. That’s all rimu needed to do. It’s not stealing it’s just a minor license violation -at worst. Typically, every single file doesn’t need the license in it. So that’s kind of a cop out by Rimu. Contributors should be acknowledged for their contributions.
Why do developers of open source software have to make shit so difficult?
How do you the attribution correctly?
It does sound like a genuine mistake as opposed to something sneaky.
I’m far from an expert on open source best practices, and I also wouldn’t have known the difference between taking code with a .patch file vs taking code with copy and paste. I probably would have attributed it in some other way, but I’m a bit anxious that way and tend to go even further and overdo things. It takes me forever to publish posts and website updates out for our instance.

I think that’s the nature of forks of projects. When someone makes a fork, there is usually some kind of tension between the two developers and so something that feels small to outsiders might feel more significant to those involved.
I think the correct way is to ask to get a patch upstream?
