Subject: [gentoo-dev] Committing straight to stable
Date: Sun, 24 Apr 2005 14:44:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050424144444.58715f9c@snowdrop> (raw)

Since keywording policy seems to be being ignored again... Don't *ever*
commit new ebuild revisions straight to stable, even if you think it's a
trivial fix. There are plenty of things that could go wrong even with
simple patches -- for example, if you accidentally included some CVS Id:
lines in your patch, they'll get nuked when you do the commit. And, if
you commit straight to stable, you end up breaking arch rather than just
~arch.

The "all things must go through ~arch for a while first" rule is there
for a good reason. It's not something you can arbitrarily ignore because
you think you're not breaking anything...
