[rap-dev] WG: [eclipse-dev] Clarification on use of iplog flag
|
Hi,
I read this on eclipse-dev and thought it was interesting enough
to share it here.
Regards,
Elias.

Betreff: [eclipse-dev] Clarification on use of iplog flag
There has been
some confusion about the new "iplog" flag so I should clarify. The
"iplog" flag should be set on the *attachment* that contains the
contribution. This is done by clicking "Details" next to the
attachment, and then setting the "iplog" flag for that attachment. If
there are multiple attachments being contributed, add the flag for each
applicable attachment. This allows the system to automatically harvest data
about the size of the contribution, who contributed it (the person who added the
attachment), and the committer who processed the contribution (the person who
set the "iplog+" flag).
There is also
an "iplog" flag for the entire bug report next to the
"review" and "pmc_approved" flags. This flag should
only be used if the contribution is not in the form of an attachment. For
example, you can use this if the contributor added code or pseudo-code directly
in the comment field. The simple solution in this case is to ask the
contributor to attach a proper patch so it can be flagged. If this is not
possible or the contributor doesn't respond, you can resort to setting the
global "iplog" flag on the bug itself. What this flag does is flag
every non-committer who added a comment to the bug as contributors. If there
are comments in the same bug that are not part of the contribution, they then
need to be excluded manually by editing the project IP log. See the IP log
documentation for more details.

Please send 3.4
retrospective feedback to Philippe by end of this week. This includes what
worked well, what didn't work, and ideas for improving our development process
for future development.
All committers
should start using the automatic IP log system for marking contributed patches.
This replaces use of the "contributed" keyword in bugzilla. Now, the
individual attachment that is accepted should be marked with the
"iplog" flag to allow IP contribution data to be harvested
automatically. For complete details, including how to handle various corner
cases, see:
