Hello Custodians and Mailing List Aficionados,
I don't know if anyone has noticed, but patchwork is starting to collect a rather large amount of cruft.
I occasionally jump onto patchwork and do a little housekeeping by marking updated patches as 'Superceeded' and anything applied by Wolfgang as 'Accepted' (There may be a few patches that have been applied to custodian tress that I marked as 'Accepted' when really they should have been marked as 'Awaiting Upstream')
I really don't mind doing this housekeeping, but I would like to make a few suggestions that will make the work a little easier:
- If you are a custodian: o When you apply a patch to your repo, can you please assign it to yourself in patchwork and set it to 'Awaiting Upstream' o Reply to the ML with 'Applied to <repo>/<branch>' o When you send a pull request, create a bundle with all the patches that are to be pulled (you can create the bundle early and add patches as you apply them) o When Wolfgang pulls your repo, go to the bundle and mark all the patches 'Accepted'
A while back I recall it being established that patches should be marked "accepted" when they go into the custodian repo -- has this changed?
