Apologies for having sent this message twice, the last one wasn't in plain text and were therefore not properly forwarded to the mail group. If we only consider the number of bugs in the last pushed commit, a situation might happen that a commit creates a lot of bugs. If a subsequent commit then fixes only a few of the previously created bugs the build would still pass since the number of bugs from the last commit has decreased. Should this be the intended behaviour or should adding the number of allowed bugs be a more deliberate process? Thanks, Siddhartha
