Enable devs to specifiy patch dependencies for OST
--------------------------------------------------
Key: OVIRT-1448
URL:
https://ovirt-jira.atlassian.net/browse/OVIRT-1448
Project: oVirt - virtualization made easy
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: oVirt CI
Reporter: Barak Korren
Assignee: infra
Labels: change-queue
We have an issue with our system ATM where if there are patches for different projects
that depend on one another, the system is unaware of that dependency.
What typically happens in this scenario is that sending the dependent patch makes the
experimental test fail and keep failing until the other patch is also merged.
The change queue will handle this better, but the typical behaviour for it would be to
reject both patches, unless they are somehow coordinated to make it into the same test.
The change queue core code already includes the ability to track and understand
dependencies between changes. What is missing is the ability for developers to specify
theses dependencies.
We would probably want to adopt OpenStack's convention here.
