https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/compare/master...ymir-linux:master if you don't want to diff with git diff.
They didn't follow our commit title rules so you have to look at commits like "Update" and "fix scripts" to find out what they actually changed.

My position is, we don't want to maintain more patches than necessary, adding your patches for liberation, which no one of the void maintainers care about just adds more work for everyone.

There are a few possibilities how this would end up:

* We ignore those patches and libre build options and they are going to break from time to time:
  * Users who build those packages with libre options will complain, open Issues and PRs = more work.
* We have to additionally test and update libre patches we don't care at all about  = a lot more work.

With the current situation, the people who care about libre stuff can just use git to merge our repository with their changes, git is pretty smart about merging changes as it is its main purpose, maintaining a set of patches by hand seems backwards.
There is no extra work for us and the work for the libre maintainers its a very similiar amount of work as they only have to additionally resolve merge conflicts.
