Description

It doesn't add anything useful (even if debugging) and makes it look like it broke (it didn't on this example):

Traceback (most recent call last):

Catching `CalledProcessError` and properly reporting the error with logging should be a good option here

I think there was a discussion on what 'authors' should be at some point. I don't remember all the details (this ticket is six months old).

Since ceph-disk has been worked on by so many, do you feel an 'AUTHORS' list doesn't better reflect the contributors?

I just did "egrep -r 'Author:' src/" in a ceph/ceph clone and saw that there are many lines similar to this one in the tree.

Alfredo, can you explain why this one needs to be dropped and not the others?

Not to diminish anyone's contribution, but Loic did author over half of the lines:

$ wc --lines src/ceph-disk/ceph_disk/main.py
5146 src/ceph-disk/ceph_disk/main.py
$ git blame src/ceph-disk/ceph_disk/main.py | grep 'Loic Dachary' | wc --lines

I didn't think a whole-project change was the right thing to do. I worked on ceph-disk for this ticket, so I updated this one file.

It wasn't my intention to make it controversial. It felt odd to have a single author listed there since many have contributed to it.

But removing other people's names without asking is always going to be controversial, right?

Actions #9

Updated by Alfredo Deza over 7 years ago

I am not removing anyone's name: Loic's name is still in the Authors file.

This is not something I am doing without asking, that is exactly why there is a pull request for this and a ticket, it is out in the open, so others
can comment and give feedback (like you are in this ticket).

If you think my explanations aren't sufficient, could you propose (in the PR maybe?) what is it that you think would be more correct? Even if that means to avoid changing
the Author (which, again, I was not removing)

Updated by Loïc Dachary over 7 years ago

For the record I added Author: Loic Dachary in files where the contribution I made was covered by copyright (i.e. non trivial) for two reasons. Back when I was working for CloudWatt it clearly identified in which part my contribution was significant and was instrumental to convince my management to let me work on Ceph rather than divert me to other tasks. The other reason is that under copyright law (at least for all signatories of the Berne convention) the individual author has a moral right (which cannot be forfeited in France, even by contract) to display his name on his work. Although it could be mistaken as me claiming to be the sole author of the file for someone ignorant of revision control, it is not unreasonable to assume people reading the sources are well informed on that matter. This is not something I ever explained anywhere before because I don't think anyone thought of removing my name from a source file until now. Other authors added their names here and there, maybe for similar reasons, maybe for other reasons. Although it leads to a non uniform and somewhat chaotic display of copyright and authors, it is a status quo that did not raise any concern so far, even when Red Hat lawyers audited the code back when Inktank was acquired.
