The only annoying thing is that if you don't push the patch to the git repo yourself, then every time you sync with the repo you have to resolve the conflicts between the edits you've made to your local copy and the patches that you've submitted and have been merged by someone else. Unless there's a workaround to avoid this?Something I had failed to predict about mailing commits to the list is there's no easy way to tell which commit is destined for which repository. :-) Perhaps we should settle on another procedure. So here's what I'd suggest, in cases where you're not authorized to push your commits to a repository (and don't want to wait for access to send your patch): 1. If there's a bug in Bugzilla for the problem, attach the commit there. Note that attaching a patch is not the same as just pasting it into a comment field. Use the 'Add an attachment' function instead to keep the bug easy to read. (The 'git format-patch HEAD^' command will make a nice patch file for you to attach.) 2. Add the 'Patch' keyword to the bug, which indicates a patch is attached to fix the problem. 3. If there's no bug for the problem, file one and then go to step 1. :-) What do you guys think? Nathan |
