Hi all,

in #nixos the question came up why people with push access to the
nixpkgs repository do not have the right to e.g. restart jobs or create
jobsets on hydra. Vladimír Čunát and I think that people that have push
access to nixpkgs should be trusted anyway. IMO this would make NixOS
development easier. For example commits like "whitespace change to
trigger a rebuild" would be no longer necessary and creating jobsets
would ease the testing of stdenv changes.

So, whats the reason for the current policy of granting only very few
people those rights on hydra? Wouldn't it make sense to grant those
rights to all with push access?

Regards
Pascal
