Experiment: Using GitHub for AUTH48
Work Flow in 2020-2021
The authors and editor agreed to use the GitHub Pull Request work flow:
- The authors answer the AQ in the comments of the issue (e.g., see comments for #922).
- The authors indicate that an issue is ready for editor attention by labeling the issue “editor-ready” and assigning the issue to the editor.
- The editor creates a branch off the rfced branch to address the issue.
- The editor makes edits in that branch.
- The editor commits changes.
- The editor creates a Pull Request (PR) to submit the changes to the repo (e.g., PR #997).
- The authors review the PR:
- If the PR is accepted, the authors merge the changes to the rfced branch, which closes the issue.
- If the PR is rejected, the editor makes changes to the current branch and resubmits the PR.
- Repeat for the other issues.
The authors and the editor set up notifications so that many of these steps automatically generated emails to involved parties (assigning/commenting on issues, use of @mentions, creating/accepting/rejecting PRs). 766 messages were generated during AUTH48.
Feedback in 2020-2021
