Discussion Items

Q: How do we structure SLE16 based on the component architecture model?
A: Jiri: not decided yet
Daniel to write a small gitea api wrapper library to be included in osc
osc fork behavior:
- setup a fork in gitea and link a branch project in OBS together
- how to handle if parts of it exist already? suggestion to only do the OBS setup if fork succeeds, otherwise print warnings
Adam to work on a staging workflow prototype
- all package gits would be in one central organisation, like .e.g. /pool
- staging/devel projects are handled via a separate project git, either with submodules or full trees (for new packages?)
- playground is in https://src.opensuse.org/autogits
- A lot of information needs to be stored in the git projects and no longer in OBS
- PR waiting for openbuildservice to increase size limit of onlybuilds to > 255 chars
- https://src.opensuse.org/autogits
- putting the project gits external to build service allows for more project-specific workflows/CI/CD integration
- diffing over submodules in gitea
  - upstream accepted the feature wish, waiting for a PR
Q: What is going on wrt to staging/staging plan or concept?
- How the staging is planned to work as normally staging is in forks/branches?
