I wanted rpmautospec to handle rebuilds without commits/changelog bumps, because then we could trigger rebuilds more simply (dependency drift? rebuild in side-tag then merge once all rebuilds are done). Now it would require interacting with Git and changelog bumps. Essentially, this is the model that is used in openSUSE and it's quite a bit less stressful. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
