Thread:Manual talk:Skin autodiscovery/Making an example of core skins?/reply

Hi there!

I was the one who added the idea to show people how the Core skins got separated from the Core. The reason a find this info useful is simply that there are a number of skins, which are basically Vector clones. They look different and so, but technically they are forks of Vector. I am even maintaining some of them in a Git repo where I have the upstream Vector updates merged into the custom skins. While I think that many custom skins are based on Vector, I doubt that all maintainers use Git to get the updates easily. They are who this information is useful for.
