Dereckson <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #3 from Dereckson <[email protected]> 2012-10-16 15:18:20 UTC --- Automatic closure as RESO FIXED submitting a patch won't work in each case. [ The buggy ones ] ie the cases we could ignore if Bugzilla users accept to be more disciplined In Wikimedia product, Site config or extension setup components, when the operations change is merged, it's only a configuration file which have been edited. The real resolution is when we deploy the new files and so it becomes the production config. Furthemore, imagine a scenario when an extension change requires also a core change. In the perfect world, we should open a new bug for the core change blocking the extension change. Don't automatically close allows not to be too pedantic with Bugzilla use and work pragmatically. This is bad, but this is how we sometimes worked in the past. I remember also a wiki with 3 requests in a single bug, two fixed by changes pushed to Gerrit, one by intervention on the local wiki. We wanted to have the 3 resolved to close the bug. This is clearly a case where we should have created 3 new bugs, but we didn't. __________________________ [ The tricky ones ] ie the cases automatic closure will never work Now imagine also we try something to fix a very complicated bug, like bug 37225 (an history corruption issue). It required 6 changed merged to resolve the bug: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/q/project:mediawiki/core+topic:bug/37225,n,z + more changes to avoid similar situations in the future without an explicit reference to the bug (see the last comments) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
