Calling all committers: The pending-commit list is overflowing

by Adam Barth-3 :: Rate this Message:

We have 43 patches that have been reviewed and are waiting to land:

http://webblaze.org/pending-commit

If you're a committer, you can help drive that number to zero.  Here's
what you can do:

1) If you have a patch on that list, please land it.

2) If you see a patch on the list that's ready to land (almost all of
them), you can mark it commit-queue+ to have the commit bot land it.
When you do this, please be sure to watch the tree for regressions,
just like you would if you typed svn commit yourself.

Thanks and happy WebKitting,
Adam

Mark correctly points out that I meant:

http://webkit.org/pending-commit

(webblaze.org is my server for running experiments.)

I got this: "You are not authorized to edit this patch."

FYI, if you're using commit-queue+, you should know about:
http://webkit-commit-queue.appspot.com/

which gives you a little window into commit-queue's tiny brain.
Eventually I hope to move that to http://commit.webkit.org/ or
something easier to remember.

We're back down to 25 after Yong's epic cq+ing this morning.  The
queue had a record 13 patch backlog for a while.  Thank you Yong for
cleaning the pending-commit list!

Still 25 to go.  All of which require manual attention from committers.

Thanks everyone!

Why are there 17 patches with review+ that never get landed?

This has bothered me in the past, but I wasn't sure if it was the same group of patches or not.

It's not the same group of patches.  Sometimes there are patches with
review+ but with comments that need to be addressed by the
contributor.  Other times, there are dependent patches that haven't
been landed.  We could be more agressive in clearing out the
pending-commit list, but it only seems problematic when it piles up.

As an experiment, I went through this list in detail and brought it
down to 11 patches.  The rest fall into the following categories:

1) Epic uber bugs that are incomprehensible.  For example:

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27651
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16768
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3749

2) Apple contributors who have explicitly asked not to have their
patches landed for them, for whatever reason.  For example:

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29905
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30421

3) Patches where the patch has been review+ but the contributor has
been asked to consider non-trivial (meaning I can't do it for them)
changes.  For example:

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30083

I don't see a big need to drive this list all the way to zero.  If we
could get the review queue down to 11 patches, I'd be a really happy
man.  :)

@_@ Whoops, didn't realize that these patches are still active. All ruby work went to https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28420 (not that that makes the patches less incomprehensible... ^_-).

I disabled my patches in 3749. Sorry for the unnecessary workload!
