Hi All,

F19 has been branched, please be sure to do a git pull --rebase to pick
up the new branch, additionally rawhide/f20 has had inheritance cut off
from previous releases,  so this means that anything you do for f19 you
also have to do in the master branch and do a build there.

Why was it cut off so soon actually? The reason for disabling inheritance
was due to Bodhi updates, which might not go stable, if I remember
correctly, but Bodhi is not in action yet I suppose, so the cut of was too
soon IMO. Could you please reconsider it? Thank you.
No, branching is the correct time to do it. Mandated tagging through
koji and inheritance are completely unrelated. At the moment koji tags
the packages straight into f19 rather than tagging to
f19-updates-candidate and having bodhi deal with the tagging.

Inheritance only affect whether something is built in f19 is inherited
through to rawhide. There was a discussion some time ago about this so
presumably this change was either a decision by release engineering or
FESCo.

I am afraid that the discussion was more generic, i.e. "Rawhide should not inherit from branched Fedora" and since I remember the main reason for breaking inheritance was Bodhi and Bodhi is not yet in a game, it should be clarified and adjusted.

Vít

Peter
