[opensuse-factory] automatic pulling from devel projects into factory
Hi, from the recent discussions and from our experience at the network:samba openSUSE Build Service project we know that it's useful to have a mechanism to automatic submit a project to openSUSE:Factory. A good example is network:samba:STABLE. It's our goal to offer only STABLE code from this repository. While on the other hand it's a moving target as openSUSE:Factory is. From time to time it happens that one of us updates n:s:STABLE but doesn't submit request it into oS:Factory. That's bad in particular if it happens close to a code freeze. And from the recent discussion on this lists it sounds like such a feature might even be of help to other projects. I suggest to make this an optional configuration setting to save people one potential superfluous step. The default could stay the same way as it is now. This would even allow to enable and disable the mechanism to the project maintainers. As soon as our desperate factory janitor aka coolo had to pull a package the fifth time he might turn into the factory dictator and enable the suggested automatic pull. :) Lars -- Lars Müller [ˈlaː(r)z ˈmʏlɐ] Samba Team SUSE Linux, Maxfeldstraße 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany
