-Repository Workflow:
-////////////////////
-
-Here are some guidelines for users or developers regarding the work with this
-Git repository.
-
-* Users:
-
-- steps to verify a release tag can be done with GPG:
- git show maint-dborkman-pgp-pub | gpg --import
- git show maint-tklauser-pgp-pub | gpg --import
- git tag -v <tag-name>
-
-* Developers:
-
-- steps to submit a patch:
- we follow in general a similar submission process as in the Linux kernel
- read https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/SubmittingPatches
- read Documentation/SubmittingPatches
- if a commit was acknowledged by someone, add
- Acked-by: Random J Developer <random@developer.example.org>
- if a bug was reported by someone, add
- Reported-by: Random J Developer <random@developer.example.org>
- if a feature was suggested by someone, add
- Suggested-by: Random J Developer <random@developer.example.org>
- if a commit was tested by someone, add
- Tested-by: Random J Developer <random@developer.example.org>
- if a commit was reviewed by someone, add
- Reviewed-by: Random J Developer <random@developer.example.org>
- if a bug was bisected by someone, add
- Bisected-by: Random J Developer <random@developer.example.org>
- in case tagging as mentioned above already happened internally
- in your company by different persons, you can add those tags
- before submission into the patch commit message
- in case someone on the mailing list adds his/her *-by tag, it's the
- job of the maintainer to keep track of that and to apply this properly
-
-* Maintainer:
-
-- steps to add your public GPG key:
- gpg --gen-key [...]
- gpg --list-keys [take the pubkey id you want to add]
- gpg -a --export <pubid> | git hash-object -w --stdin
- <git-object-id>
- git tag -a maint-<short-name>-pgp-pub <git-object-id>
- <log: Public key of <full name>.>
- git push --tags
-
-- steps to make a new release:
- set proper versioning in the Makefile itself
- make release
- git push --tags
- upload tarballs to public dir
- update website
- email generated .MAIL_MSG to the mailing list, include
- bcc to the maintainers listed in Documentation/Downstream
-
-- apply patches from non-maintainers, basic rules to follow:
- preferred are patches that have been sent via git send-email
- never do an automatic Github merge in case the pull request came from there
- in case of Github we need to do cherry-picking
- if it's a pull request, make sure it does not contain merges itself
- always add your Signed-off-by to the commit message in case of an apply
- patches must be rejected in case the developer's Signed-off-by is missing
