----------------------------------
Summary: test-patch should complain more loudly about unrecognized
PATCH_OR_ISSUE
Key: YETUS-951
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YETUS-951
Project: Yetus
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Precommit
Reporter: Nick Dimiduk
I ended up losing a fair bit of time the other day, trying to work on a GitHub
PR pre-check without enabling the {{github}} plugin. The error messages apply
patch were obscure and unhelpful. I think the fall-through logic should be more
helpful, printing a message that says something like "Unrecognized patch
reference / don't know what to do with ${PATCH_OR_ISSUE}." The current
messaging just says "ERROR: ${PATCH_OR_ISSUE} does not apply to
${PATCH_OR_ISSUE}," which left me thinking somehow the git checkout wasn't
clean, when in fact there was no plugin support for the GitHub PR URL.
