Re: [eclipse-pmc] Gerrit submit strategies proposal

I mistyped.  I meant rebase if necessary.  As far is not being a fan of "postfactum verification builds" what do you think our nightly builds we become if we have no verification builds done on the rebased commit?

I think merge if required policy is probably preferred.  But can we still get a gerrit build run automatically when a merge commit is pushed to master?  I'm not suggesting this as a way to block the gerrit submission.  Instead it is a way to at least have a sanity build of the merge commit along with the other changes it merged with in master.  Otherwise there is a slight risk of introducing a build break that goes unnoticed until the nightly build.
 
I'm not a fan of merge commits nor of postfactum verification builds. Why do you think merge if required is better than Rebase if Necessary? The later should prevent us from the possibility of broken code going into the repo.

Looks like the tendency is +1.

The PMC discussion was deferred to next Tuesday, where we will make the final call.

+1 I don't think that the rebased changes are reviewed again and
again, committers just have to wait a long time to get a merge window
and that is demotivating.

Now that our committer and contributor community activity has hugely
increased, we should remove that demotivating approach.

Reality though is that no one rebases his change multiple times and wait for gerrit again just because another commit went in, I've tried and in platform.ui I gave up on 3rd rebase and just pushed it right after rebase. But even this generated one more totally useless gerrit build.
