Re: [ovirt-devel] Alternatives to automatically move bugs to MODIFIED

Hi all, We currently have a bot that automatically moves bugs from POST to MODIFIED if all linked patches on gerrit are merged. It happened to me personally several times that this was a wrong thing to do, either because a new patch was still needed but not pushed yet, or because an existing patch should have been back-ported to another branch and wasn't yet. Since I usually pay more attention to my bug in POST, I sometimes missed this and handled the missing patches (backports, usually) later than I could if left on POST. I have a feeling I am not the only one. So I suggest to stop doing this. I can think of several alternatives: 1. Do nothing. I think that's reasonable - I think most people pay more attention to POST bugs anyway. 2. Set needinfo on bug owner. 3. Send some alert email to relevant people (bug owner, existing patches owners, perhaps others - e.g. reviewers of existing patches, perhaps those that actually reviewed, etc.). Need to think how to make it not too annoying for others but still effective also if owner is on long PTO or something like that. New flag doesn't have to be very specific - can be called something like 'attention needed' or something like that. 4. Add a new flag for that and set it. This will allow easier filtering/reporting. What do you think? -- Didi _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel(a)ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
