Feature changed by: Lars Müller (lmuelle) Feature #313057, revision 5 Title: Automatically enable new version branch as target Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Robert Schweikert (rjschwei) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: We should automatically enable the new release branch as a build target for all projects that build against factory when we branch. For all projects that build for new version -1 and factory. This avoids the hassle of maintainers having to go in and turning this on explicitly. My guess would be that there are fewer maintainers that do not want this behavior than there are maintainers that want this behavior. The other alternative would be to add yet another setting to the meta data of a project that says "build-new-target-on-release-branching" then maintainers can choose this depending on their preference. I don't think we need such a flag, but it gives control to project maintainers.
