Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-9303:
---------------------------------------------
bq. I thought a committer could do a squashed merge without necessarily having
to rebase as long as the patch applies or is a rebase always necessary?
We don't commit by merging, we pull a squashed version of the patch on top of
the current code base, so rebasing is always the preferred way. In any case, we
do ideally want to have test run on a sufficiently rebased version (typically
saying a test failure is fine because the patch is on an old version is
potentially dangerous) and we want to avoid having the committer deal with
merge conflicts since he's not necessarily familiar with the patch, so always
rebasing is a good strategy.
Anyway, thanks for doing it and let's wait on CI.
