 emily | we do not pull in any until it merges | 16:05:57 |
| emily | (unless we have to) | 16:06:03 |
| emily | staging-next is there so that rebuilds sent to staging don't throw away builds in the cycle | 16:06:31 |
| emily | (or we'd have to "freeze" staging periodically which AIUI was done in the old days) | 16:07:05 |
 Grimmauld (any/all) | only viable if the preople running staging can reasonably keep track of all open mass rebuild PRs, those days are long over | 16:07:59 |
 raboof | right so essentially only when staging-next merges into master, staging becomes the 'new staging-next'? | 16:08:29 |
| emily | I get the impression it was more yelling at people for merging into staging at the wrong time | 16:08:32 |
| emily | yes (except not really as we rotate through the stable release branches too) | 16:08:53 |
| emily | usually we do unstable, stable, unstable, etc. | 16:09:02 |
| emily | with a day or two in between for the channel to catch up post-merge | 16:09:16 |
| raboof | gotcha, so in the mean time there 'is no' staging-next while you're working on staging-next-xx | 16:12:38 |
