Hi,

and what about changes already uploaded to Gerrit, containing a cherry-pick line?

They cannot be uploaded again without changing at least the commit message. What should happen there?

Best regards,
André

Hi,

It would help to actually state the rules the bot is following.

This case below is an assumption since you don't really name the rules and I am 
interpreting in between your lines:

How do I stage a change that is not a cherry-pick? Yes, they do exist and I can 
name a few cases where this makes sense especially since we are talking about 3 
minor releases of Qt in between.

Subject: [Development] HEADS-UP: 5.6 / LTS is now open for business

moin,

we finally managed to add a cherry-pick validator to the sanity bot, so
i dared to open the 5.6 branch for staging again.

caveat: patchsets created before the final forward merge got a positive
review while they aren't cherry-picks. i don't suppose anyone would
stage such an old patchset as-is anyway, but please check.

note that there is an exception to the policy as well: the qt5 super
repo continues to operate in forward-merge mode also for the LTS branch.
you probably don't care unless you're in the release or CI team.

there is also another consideration: these off 5.6 integration runs of
course cost CI resources. maybe it would be smart as a matter of policy
to have a dedicated team do the staging in batches.
