Barak Korren commented on OVIRT-1193:
-------------------------------------
The thing is - if last week's events taught us anything is that people are not
willing to remember anything - not even one command.
I thing that a short enough message, that will appear once and only once when a
patch (patch! not patchset!) is created, is unobtrusive enough to not be
annoying. The huge benefit of this is that now no one can say he never heard
that there is a CI system and it has commands.
This will also be a good place to warn new contributors about not being in the
whitelist and tell them what to do.
> add on request 'ci help' command via Gerrit
