Lazarus Team - Git Workflows

This page contains workflows for Lazarus team members, when working with GIT.

git pull --rebase

Commits made by team members should have a linear history

If you have local commits to push, and the remote branch has new commits too, then use rebase. Do not create any merge commits.

   git pull --rebase

or

   git rebase

= Merge Requests / Pull Requests.

Merge requests should be included by creating a merge commit

   git merge merge-request/foo

  Note: To pull merger request to your local git: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/merge_requests/reviews/#checkout-locally-by-modifying-gitconfig-for-a-given-repository

Milestone

When closing an issue, ensure to set the correct milestone.

If the issues is (or will be) merged to a fixes branch, set the milestone for the fixes release. (If the merge later fails, the milestone must be amended).

If you do not merge (cherry pick) yourself:

• leave the issue open
• Set the fixes milestone
• add the label

merge::merge-and-close
