[PYTHON] Follow the mystery of orthographic-pedant that suddenly appeared on GitHub !!
One day I suddenly got a PR
I suddenly received a pull request like this yesterday at CyberAgent / beezlib where I am the owner.
Fix typographical error(s) by orthographic-pedant · Pull Request #17 · CyberAgent/beezlib
The content of the PR was a fix for a simple ** README ** typo. As you commented, it merged immediately ...
Who is orthographic-pedant?
Somehow, the comments are polite, and I wondered what kind of person is doing this? I looked at Profile with an interest in mind.
…?!
Nanikore ...
I just created an account the other day, but Contribution is 1882?
The length of the beard is also unusual.
Solution
No matter how you look at this, I thought it was ok and googled a little. The question was quickly resolved.
Well, as most people know, it was a bot.
The project is here.
It was a bot that kidnapped the repository on GitHub and fixed the common English word typo. this is convenient.
There was also a log of which repository and which mistake was fixed, so it's a bit interesting to take a look.
Conclusion
Maybe you'll get a similar PR in your repository, but I don't think you should reply with a bot!
I replied and felt a little embarrassed !!!
