Hi everyone,
There have been more github pull requests lately, partly because I like
that for reviewing contributions. I like to be able to comment on
specific lines and have a bit more detailed discussion.
I just wanted to share a couple of good things to know:
* The github JIRA comments have a link to a PR patch file, if you prefer
patches.
* The patch link gets the latest changes when the PR is updated.
* To close a PR when you commit a change, just add a comment like
"Closes #18". Otherwise we can't close them.
Lately I've been using github as an alternate remote so I can fetch all
of the PRs at once and cherry pick into my git-svn branch. That works
pretty well and removes the problem of remembering to add files that are
in a patch but not added to git or svn.
Hopefully that's helpful to others. Thanks,
rb
