Adrian,
didn't you say you would circulate your report for review, before posting it?
I can not remember that I said this.
Source Link: ============
While discussing the source handling itself, what osc should do and so on we figured out some missing features in source link implementation we need:
* remove files functionality * add changelog entry (In which relation is this to merge request description ?
I'm not sure what you mean here; could you clarify a bit, please?
IIRC, Michael said that he wanted to add some functionality in source link support to handled additionaly changelog entries in .changes files better.
osc shall support to work on _link file sources directly, but also offer to work on merged sources but submitting the user changes only with a _link later.
The open question for me here still is what's the differentiator for the user, compared with working on a copy. Especially since in all cases the user needs to merge the local changes into upstream changes.
the user requesting a merge is not the only view, another view is also the owner of the project who receives the merge request. Or quite possible multiple at the same time.
* The "merge request" should get renamed to "submit request".
If we all agree on that, I'll go ahead and rename it in the code that I just added.
Andreas & Klaas, are you going to rename it in the api code, and in the Wiki as well?
We will do so, if we all agree on that new suggestion.
We did not finish our discussion, so we will follow up by mail an follow up tomorrow together with Klaas.
I set up another small internal call about this for tomorrow JFYI. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) email: adrian@suse.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
