The new "series" support is seems like a potentially nice thing but isn't super useful to me yet. Maybe I'm not using it correctly, or maybe there are enhancements planned. Here's what I see:
- The "Series" column takes up a lot of horizontal space in the browser window. - The content is usually redundant because it's either the same as the "Patch" column (for single patches) or it's repeated N times for a series of N patches. What would seem useful to me is to treat a series as more of a first-class object, e.g., - Omit the "Series" column entirely. - For single patches, don't show any series information at all. - For N-patch series, show the series title on a separate line, followed by the existing 1..N lines indented a little bit, e.g., Series: Address error and recovery for AER and DPC [v10,7/7] PCI/DPC: Enumerate the devices after DPC trigger event [v10,6/7] PCI: Unify wait for link active into generic pci [v10,5/7] PCI/AER: Unify aer error defines at single space ... - It would be nice if the series line included the version. - It would be super cool if the series line had a checkbox that could be used to supersede, accept, mark N/A, etc for the whole series at once. - The "Date" and "Submitter" fields are redundant in a series; maybe showing them once on the hypothetical new "Series" line would be enough. I do see that clicking the text in the "Series" column gets me to a page, e.g., https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linux-pci/list/?series=29978, where I can check the "Patch" box to select the series as a whole. I could probably make more use of that than I do, but my internet connection is pretty slow, so I would definitely prefer something that works on the main page.
