Difficulties to support the Community Days

[Carsten Schinzer]

Hello all,


Admittedly I have been away for a very long time and things have changed.
I seem to be having difficulties to contribute to the Community Days, but maybe simply rookie issues, so any helping hand is appreciated.

I have this status:
* OFBiz code bases (framework and plugins) cloned from git
* local framework testing completed
* JIRA Access working - I can see and follow the current sprint
* Confluence Access working - surprising after almost 9 years of silence; that’s what I call continuity :)

I am stuck here:
1) While I can see Jira tickets, when I want to investigate commits, I need to log on to Fishbowl, but that appears to be a new account. Who can grant me access?

2) I do see the three main branches on git, but I fail to see any (feature or bug) branches with ongoing development. Are you working with local branching and limiting the main branch interactions to pull requests? Am I just missing permission?

Thanks for helping me to get up to speed.
Warm regards


Carsten

Hi Carsten,

Welcome back.

re: 1
Indeed things has changes. Yet there is no dependency on Fishbowl. In fact
there is no mention at all in any of our mailing lists regarding an
integration with fishbowl. The tools still in use by the project: Jira (for
issue management, release management, etc), GitHub (public repos, pull
requests from forks and local clones), Confluence for documentation.

re: 2
The consensus within the community is that feature/bug branches exist in
the local clones (from forks or directly from the public repos) until
maturity. After that proposed changes are handled though pull requests.
This enables community members to collaborate on feature/bug branch (by
forking/cloning from the community member's repo, while at the same time
avoiding a cluttered and confusing public repo).  the See [1] and [2].

There is also a page in our wiki regarding this. see [3]

Hi,


Thanks indeed - #2 explains and is valid practice, just needed to know.

Ad 1 - The following is what I get, when I click on the commits link on any JIRA ticket with existing commits a popup dialog opens (I use that inside my work evironment to investigate on the code level). Example:
OFBIZ-11715: 1 unique commit
Authenticate to see related commits

Please log in to approve this application: fisheye <https://issues.apache.org/jira/plugins/servlet/applinks/oauth/login-dance/authorize?applicationLinkID=3b515deb-9c05-3575-992e-07c19ddeb26f>



That is how I came to ask about Fisheye …

Maybe this is an unwanted side effect on the tooling side?
Warm regards


Carsten

Ahh. Yes, there is also Fisheye (another Atlassian product,  and still in
play). That aspect of our tooling hasn't been adjusted yet (showing (links
to) commits in Github.

Please be so kind to raise an issue regarding this, so that it can be
followed through.
