Re: [eclipse-pmc] Review of mass changes

I have not check JDT Gerrit builds but in platform we set "Build
current patch set" only, this will cancel older patch set builds. See
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=450031

Maybe this is also an option for JDT Gerrit

When doing so, it would be nice to add a message on Gerrit: "we aborted the build because we currently need more immediate feedback on some other change, a new build will be retriggered when you publish a new patch set, or feel free to ping if you need it retriggered later."
