@ -57,10 +57,65 @@ Code Merge Responsibilities
---------------------------
While everyone is encouraged to review changes, members of the core reviewer
team have the ability to +2/-2 and +W changes to these repositories. This is
team have the ability to set +2/-2 on the Code-Review (CR) label as well as +1
on Workflow (+W) changes to these repositories. This is
an extra level of responsibility not to be taken lightly. Correctly merging
code requires not only understanding the code itself, but also how the code
affects things like documentation, testing, upgrade impacts and interactions
with other projects. It also means you pay attention to release milestones and
understand if a patch you are merging is marked for the release, especially
critical during the feature freeze.
Code Merge Policies
-------------------
Below you will find general policies on the Code-Review process and when a patch
may be considered as ready for merge and when to +W.
It is the responsibility of the Core Reviewer, who reviews the change last, to
set the +W label once a change passes the policy. Also, before setting +W please
make sure that all dependant patches (marked with ``Depends-On`` in a commit
message) are already merged to avoid unnecessary rechecks or case dependant
patch(s) will fail in the gates.
All changes can be split into multiple categories and a slightly different
policy may apply for each category.
