ASF GitHub Bot commented on NETBEANS-54: ---------------------------------------- javydreamercsw commented on issue #163: [NETBEANS-54] Module Review maven.indexer URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/pull/163#issuecomment-339760312 In all my GitHub projects I can configure how PR are handled. From allowing all types (merge, squash, etc.) to selecting one or some of them. If squashing is the preferred way it should be probably the only option. Usually the person(s) configured to merge to trunk can choose which one.  ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.

How such files are identified needs to be > defined and documented, either in scripts under version control or as a set > of rules. The review process must be documented and traceable, so that we can > go back to it if problems are found in the future. > b) Get an updated grant which does not mention such exclusions. > If someone sees other options please discuss here or on the NetBeans dev > list, referencing this ticket. > [1] in svn under private/documents/grants/oracle-america-netbeans.pdf , ASF > members have access > [2] under http://bits.netbeans.org/download/apache-donation/ - > SHA256(ApacheNetBeansDonation1.zip)= > 7f2ca0f61953a190613c9a0fbcc1b034084b04a4d55d23c02cefffc354e7c24a -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
