#5843 Create koji plugin to allow building only from whitelisted git branches
Closed: Invalid 6 years ago Opened 10 years ago by till.

To allow user git branches, koji needs to be able to allow building only from whitelisted git branches such as master or epel-7. This might need to be addressed in a koji plugin.

I will try to figure out something ASAP.

Currently the unwritten policy is not to assign tickets to persons, therefore I just add you to the CC list instead. Thank you for trying to address this issue. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

It would be needed to allow packagers to delete private branches - probably it would be even more important with pagure for dist-git if we use more private branches there. Or if pagure would not allow private branches for the official repo, it might not be as important.

Or if pagure would not allow private branches for the official repo, it might not be as important.

We added a feature to pagure to "enforce the PR workflow" in which case direct access to the main repo is entirely disabled and everyone needs to go via forks and pull-requests to contribute to the repo.
This can currently be set either at the repo (opt-in) or at the pagure instance level (so forced onto everyone).

@pingou Oh God, that's terrible. I don't want that at all... Can't we just have it so that private branches can only be used for scratch builds?

Thank you for your constructive feedback

@pingou Thank you for omitting the second half of my response and making it sound like I gave nothing useful at all...

That's just because I pretty much had to take a break after reading the first part.
That's what I do when I encounter such strong language.

If you're willing to work on it and get it accepted upstream, I'm sure this would satisfy all parties involved and solve all three tickets related to this.

closing as invalid, with stream branching we should not do this now
