Hello list,

tl;dr:
(1) You may already have won a free rebase of your stale Bugzilla patches.
Yay!
(2) If you have WIP branches in the main repository, please move them to
your fork.

Some of you list subscribers may have old unreviewed or needs-work patches
for GJS sitting in Bugzilla. As we prepare to migrate the still-open
Bugzilla bugs to GitLab, I want to make sure those patches aren't lost.

I have rebased all of them and brought them up to date with GJS coding
style. Some, I found, were already fixed, or unsalvageable, and those I
closed. The remaining ones I pushed to new branches in GNOME/gjs, of the
form wip/<username>/<bugzilla-bug-number>-<bugzilla-bug-title>. In the case
where I didn't know your username I chose something that is hopefully
recognizable to you.

Once the Bugzilla bugs are migrated over to GitLab, I'll make merge
requests out of those branches and associate them with the new GitLab
issues. At that point, I hope the new, easy workflow will provide
encouragement to fix up and land the merge requests!

I also intend to delete some old branches from the repository, if they
contain code that has already been merged. Code that hasn't been merged
I'll leave there for the time being, but if you have a work-in-progress
feature in the GJS repository, I'd appreciate it if you can move the branch
to your own fork in GitLab.

Thanks,
Philip
