What do you mean by 'gating to the merge'? I'm not sure I understand what
it means.
Isn't check-patch.sh does the gating? check-merge runs post merge so its
already too late to gate the code ...
And I think check-merge and check-patch currently runs the same rpmbuild
command, so I don't see how check-merged has any value over check-patch.
