(In reply to commit-hook from comment #22)

Just for the records, "with minor changes" refers to not changing
upstream and keep using the FreeBSDDesktop fork on github instead.
At this moment the fork is basically identical to upstream
(besides CI integration).

@zeising Not sure if you saw my comments above[0], I think
that keeping a fork of something that has native FreeBSD support
and is actively maintained by a responsive author creates extra
work and complicates contributing.

If you want to keep it like that, I'd suggest you close the issue and
pull request which  were created by the upstream author:

https://github.com/FreeBSDDesktop/epoll-shim/pull/5
https://github.com/FreeBSDDesktop/epoll-shim/issues/4

Maybe also add some comments in your fork's README.md on github,
explaining how people are supposed to contribute if they find
problems:

- Pull request on your fork on github
- Pull request upstream
- Bug here
- All three of the above(?)

Thanks
