Regressions reported

A regression is "something that used to work, that broke", or "an unintended not-good change" in a released version of hledger.

We don't like regressions. We want to detect them quickly, repair them quickly, and reduce their frequency. You can help by finding them, or fixing them!

Regression finder bounty

For new regression reports submitted to the bug tracker since 2024-01-01 (affecting any past release), we currently offer a $50 bounty (original announcement). If you don't want the bounty, you can absolutely choose to re-donate it back to the project treasury. But consider accepting it - it's good for the project! Just do respond within 7 days after the bounty is confirmed, otherwise it will become an automatic project donation.

Regression fixer bounty

For regression issues fixed, we currently offer a separate $50 bounty. If you find and fix the regression, you get both bounties. (If you caused the regression, we appreciate you fixing it but you don't get the bounties - sorry!)

How to claim the bounty

Discover a new regression, which you did not cause, and report it in the hledger bug tracker. And/or, fix an open issue which has the regression label.
Wait for confirmation from the issue manager (SM).
Send an expense reimbursement request to hledger's open collective. Note this might reveal your real name. Here's the procedure:
- at hledger's open collective, click Submit Expense. (If you are logged in, this will be under the ACTIONS menu.)
- choose Invoice; choose a Payout method; click Next
- Expense title: Regression (finder / fixer / finder & fixer) bounty for #NNNN
- Description: (Found / Fixed) ISSUEURL, WORKDATE(S)
- Date: today's date
- Amount: USD 50 (or 100 if you found and fixed). Or convert to another currency with today's rate (and mention that rate in Description).
- Next, Submit Expense
Wait for the finance manager (SM) to get the email notification and approve it. This should not take more than a day or two. (For fastest response, mention on the issue page or in chat that you've submitted.)
Wait for Open Collective to pay it. This should happen within a week (payouts happen twice a week).
