Vijay, Amye, could you approve this please?
11:45 <@nigelb> ndevos: 3.8 doesn't have any special permissions. He should be
able to do them if he can merge onto master.
11:46 <@nigelb> ndevos: If he can't merge onto master, please get ack from
Vijay + Amye onto the bug.
11:47 < ndevos> nigelb: hmm, no he does not have that, it should only be
applied for the release-3.8 branch... is that not possible?
11:48 <@nigelb> It's granting commit access to gluster to someone who doesn't
have it. And we don't have a process for it.
11:48 <@nigelb> So I'm not working around the lack of a process.
11:49 < ndevos> but setting up the "special permissions" for release-3.8 should
not be a problem?
11:49 * ndevos just hates to be the SPOF for 3.8 releases
11:49 <@nigelb> Er, why don't you ask someone else who does have commit access
for help?
11:50 < ndevos> well, jiffin is listed as the co-maintainer for 3.8
11:50 <@nigelb> So it shouldn't be difficult to get sign off from Vijay and
Amye.
11:50 <@nigelb> So why don't you do that?
11:50 < ndevos> some of the other component maintainers merge patches in 3.8,
but they do not really take release dates into account
11:51 < ndevos> if that is what is needed, I'll get it, sure, and as maintainer
of 3.8 I would be surprised to see any objection from them
11:52 <@nigelb> Exactly. So just get it done so it's official.
11:52 <@nigelb> Then we can repeat this in the future as well.
(In reply to Niels de Vos from comment #1) > Vijay, Amye, could you approve this please? > Approved. Approved. Also, we need a process for this, but this works for being able to have maintainers choose their own peers to assist them. Granted non-exclusive permissions to Niels and Jiffin for 3.8. If this needs to be made exclusive to the two of you (like 3.10), let me know and I can change. Thanks everyone for resolving this issue as quick as possible |
