I don't think any of these issues are show-stoppers from moving
entirely to MRs, though. Perhaps issue #1 here should be fixed
first,
dunno...

Issue #1 is of course "just" a matter of writing some script that
gets
triggered by a hook. It's just work that needs to be done; any of
us
that complain about it could take up the work, I suppose.

The only question is where to host such a service... perhaps it's
just
a gitlab CI step? That way we'd get some "automatic" cloud
computing
power to do the work, but it doesn't really seem like a perfect
fit;
we'd need to be able to distinguis between CI steps that are
triggered
due to new

Unfinished sentence?

Whoops! I meant to say something like "we'd need to be able to
distinguis between CI steps that are triggered due to new MRs versus
updated MRs, or pushes to existing branches".

Anyway, Jason did actually write that hook, and it's something I'm
happy to host on existing fd.o machines. I just haven't got to doing
it, since I ended up taking my sabbatical a lot more seriously than I
expected, and now I'm back to work I've got a bit of a backlog. But
we
can definitely do it, and pretty soon.

Cool, then I won't worry about it, and just assume it'll appear
magically soon :)

My script was a total hack. It's probably massively insecure and doesn't include any code to provide a diffstat which has been requested by several people. Someone taking it a bit more seriously would probably be good before we deploy anything.
