| 1 | 3 | Loïc Dachary | Before a backported commit can be merged into the release branch, it must be tested in an integration branch. It serves two purposes: |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | |||
| 3 | * Detect trivial problems that would break the upgrade tests run on the release branch (they are run at the tip of the branch, not at the latest point release) |
||
| 4 | * Do not pollute the release branch with reverted commits (because it cannot be rebased) |

| 7 | |||
| 8 | 2 | Loïc Dachary | * create a giant-backport branch if it does not already exists |
| 9 | * reset it to ceph/giant |
||
| 10 | 1 | Loïc Dachary | * fetch all pull requests from github |
| 11 | * git merge all pull requests |
||
| 12 | * modify the pull requests individually to fix merge conflicts (i.e. they must merge cleanly, which may involving aggregating two pull requests into a single one designed to properly resolve the conflict) |
||
| 13 | * compile with ./autogen.sh ; ./configure ; make -j4 |
||
| 14 | * modify the pull requests individually to fix compilation errors |
