I have a few questions regarding the move.
I understand that some of these could be work in progress, but now that
I don't know if yes or no, I better mention everything.
Simple questions:
1) Is it correct that we should now delete `.git/hooks/commit-msg` that
was generating Gerrit IDs before?
2) How do I use my committer powers (if I happen to want to use them) in
the new repo?
Bigger question:
I understand that we now rely on GitHub PRs instead of Gerrits. I would
love to see the usual practice of PRs consisting of branches of properly
chunked commits. I understand that previously patches were rather done
in "single commit" style mostly due to Gerrit limitations. Now that
GitHub PRs show entire pull request as a single thing that shows all
associated commits, there is seemingly no roadblock to start making
chunked commits. What do you think?
Things that still seem to need adjustment:
1) Auto-adding GitHub pull requests to 'See also' and comment like 'PR
was created' in Bugzilla
2) Old repo URLs still mentioned here
https://www.eclipse.org/swt/git.php
Feature requests
1) It would be nice to continue to auto-detect stuff like "Bug 123456"
as links to Bugzilla. Not sure if that's easily possible on Github.
