Hi, I wanted to make people aware of a relatively new way of dealing with contributions that doesn't involve patches attached to bugs:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Development_Resources/Handling_Git_Contributions The gist of it is that a contributor can create a bug with a pointer to a SHA-1 in a public repository and request that a committer pull from that. Assuming the contributor has stated that they have written all of it, etc., it would then be as simple as adding a remote for it, fetching that remote, then cherry-pick'ing the specified commit. Don't forget that patches > 250 lines must still have a CQ opened. As usual, consult the excellent EGit user guide for help on any of these steps: http://wiki.eclipse.org/EGit/User_Guide Thanks, Andrew _______________________________________________ linuxtools-dev mailing list linuxtools-dev@eclipse.org https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxtools-dev
