Hi list,

You might note that the Gitlab activity will increase a bit
from now on, hopefully. It was agreed within some SPICE
collaborators to give a serious try on using this
infrastructure that is available to us.

One potential great change and challenge is the usage of
merge requests in oppose to patch series over mailing list. I
hope the benefits outweigh the downsides in the long run.
Derek has been working on a utility to integrate GitLab and a
mailing list, for experimentation by Wine.

He's just gotten to the point of being ready to try a proof of
concept.
Would you guys be interested in this?
What does it do exactly?

Cheers,
Victor

Hi Victor,

The bridge sends all the commits from merge-requests in patch form to the mailing list, as well as any comments the MR receives.  It also creates MRs from PATCH submissions to the mailing list.  The goal with this is to ensure the developers who are accustomed to using either system aren't isolated from developers using the other.  Optionally, the bridge can be configured to allow people to respond to the generated MRs and patch-sets, however this is disabled by default since it can be confusing based on the differences between email threads and GitLab discussions.
