1. What will be the process to give permissions to contributors on GitHub after they have filed their ICLA? | (Jacques Le Roux )Anybody should be allowed to create issues (see point 3 below). (Michael Brohl ): yes, but not anyone can provide patches afaik. They must file an ICLA first and then get specific permissions. Then comes SPAM and how to handle it. Here are 2 answers: | ||||||||
2. How do we control the permissions for committers and contributors on GitHub? | (Jacques Le Roux )Same than point 1. It's open, like in GH you can also have SPAM in Jira once you have created an account... (Michael Brohl ) we have fine grained permissions set in Jira, the answer does not refer to that. | ||||||||
3. What do we offer for contributors who are not able or willing to maintain their own repositories and follow the PR process? | (Jacques Le Roux ) This was already answered with the point 3. We should ask Infra to offer the "Issues" feature (a top button) in our GH mirrors. You can then report in GH as you would to in Jira. It mostly offers the same possibilities than Jira. I guess it's not a problem for Infra to open the feature, but that needs to be confirmed | ||||||||
4. When we publish a new release we update Jira versions to reflect the change. This information is useful to group Jira tickets by version. Is there a similar feature in GitHub? | (Jacques Le Roux ) Is the point 4 not answering this question? Also see related Jacopo's answer in my comment below (Michael Brohl ) this is not answered as long as the process is clear. How is it used in practice? | ||||||||
5. Has GitHub tools alike elaborated search in Jira, e.g. with filters? Can existing filters/views be migrated from Jira to GitHub? Examples for filters:
| (Jacques Le Roux ) Incidently, I made a seach in Jira yesterday. I was looking for "Canonical url". I could not find a result, but Markmail allowed me to find it: Jira:
Markmail: https://ofbiz.markmail.org/search/?q=%22Canonical+url%22 So, though I very like Jira search because it can be right to the point, but it's not always accurate. I can then trust Markmail, which is easier to use than Pony when you are lazy. Because it searches on all MLs for all time and you can then filter by many ways. It's also still very fast. (Michael Brohl ) I am able to find 4 results for "canonical url" and even more with using "canonical". You should use the search correctly. (Jacques Le Roux ) Can you please share your research or a filter? Mine was <<project = OFBIZ AND status in (Open, "In Progress", Reopened) AND text ~ "\"Canonical url\"">>
(Jacques Le Roux ) yes MarkMail searches are wide. Most of the time you need to filter after. (Jacques Le Roux ) It was only to illustrate my point. As I said I "very like Jira search" and know a bit about it |
