   1 Notes on Ceph repositories

   4 Special branches
   5 ----------------
   6
   7 * ``master``: current tip (integration branch)
   8 * ``next``: pending release (feature frozen, bugfixes only)
   9 * ``last``: last/previous release
  10 * ``dumpling``, ``cuttlefish``, ``bobtail``, ``argonaut``, etc.: stable release branches
  11 * ``dumpling-next``: backports for stable release, pending testing
  12
  13 Rules
  14 -----
  15
  16 The source repos are all on github.
  17
  18 * Any branch pushed to ceph.git will kick off builds that will either
  19   run unit tests or generate packages for gitbuilder.ceph.com.  Try
  20   not to generate unnecessary load.  For private, unreviewed work,
  21   only push to branches named ``wip-*``.  This avoids colliding with
  22   any special branches.
  23
  24 * Nothing should every reach a special branch unless it has been
  25   reviewed.
  26
  27 * Preferred means of review is via github pull requests to capture any
  28   review discussion.
  29
  30 * For multi-patch series, the pull request can be merged via github,
  31   and a Reviewed-by: ... line added to the merge commit.
  32
  33 * For single- (or few-) patch merges, it is preferable to add the
  34   Reviewed-by: directly to the commit so that it is also visible when
  35   the patch is cherry-picked for backports.
  36
  37 * All backports should use ``git cherry-pick -x`` to capture which
  38   commit they are cherry-picking from.
