The reason for the rejection was that Freerse's GitHub repository lacked development and update records. This was because the development had previously been done locally. The code was only uploaded to GitHub when applying for funding.

Just because you are developing locally doesn't mean you wouldn't have a large number of commits over a long period of time when you do push it. I don't know how you can build something non-trivial if you aren't doing commits every time you solve a problem. If you don't work this way, how do you step through commits for debugging etc, and how do you checkout a previous commit to figure out where something broke?
