We are not the first project to deal with this. Usually, i is sovled
by pots. See for example:
https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/16012#issuecomment-530664428
Does this really work?
This pull request still has the “CLA not signed” label:
<
https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/18111>
But this is not shown clearly in the commit:
<
https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/d6fd38e2a47af1e75>
The red X isn't a relevant indicator. This commit was merged and has it,
too:
<
https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/0d5eac8c327251f8e>
I don't know if the branch list (the “master” below the commit subject)
is a reliable indicator.
This is why I think the bot-based approach needs some review. I also
think it's quite rude. The whole FPCA thing feels strange these days.
Hopefully there is a better way to make sure that contributions are
intended as such.
Thanks,
Florian
