Why are you stressing MultiplePkgs vs single pkgs. Single pgk process is just subcase of multiplepkgs process.

And if you can do chain build in Rawhide, I can't see any reason why it should not be possible for stable branch.

IOW the process for Rawhide should be as close to stable version as possible. Using buildroot override for stable while using sidetags for Rawhide does not make any sense.

Good Morning Everyone,

Based on the outcome of this discussion, I started trying to draw how the
process to update a package in rawhide would look like with rawhide being gated
on tests.

There are currently two proposals:
- one that does not involve bodhi updates
- one that does

Both proposals have a different flow for single-package update and
multi-packages update.

Here is what I came up with.

Without bodhi:
- Single package update
  https://pingou.fedorapeople.org/gating_rawhide/GatingRawhide.png
- Multi-packages update
  https://pingou.fedorapeople.org/gating_rawhide/GatingRawhide_MultiplePkgs.png

With bodhi:
- Single package update
  https://pingou.fedorapeople.org/gating_rawhide/GatingRawhide_bodhi.png
- Multi-packages update
  https://pingou.fedorapeople.org/gating_rawhide/GatingRawhide_MultiplePkgs_bodhi.png


Outside of this workflow things we know we want to have/keep working:
- Keep chain-build working
  -> would one of the proposal facilitate that?
- Have a way to run tests against an entire side-tag before merging it
- Have a way to ask the tools to re-check greenwave's decision (so that false
  negative can be waived and the process continued)


mizdebsk suggested on IRC two ideas which I think would be worth looking into
a little bit down the road once we got the basis done:
- new side-tag could be automatically generated from fedpkg build command
- packagers could define a list of packages that should be rebuilt in the
  side-tag and when all of these packages have been successfully rebuilt, the
  request to merge the side-tag is automatically created
  This would allow to use chain-build and let the entire process be automated.


What do you think?


Pierre
