-Notes on Ceph repositories
-==========================
-
-Special branches
-----------------
-
-* ``master``: current tip (integration branch)
-* ``next``: pending release (feature frozen, bugfixes only)
-* ``last``: last/previous release
-* ``dumpling``, ``cuttlefish``, ``bobtail``, ``argonaut``, etc.: stable release branches
-* ``dumpling-next``: backports for stable release, pending testing
-
-Rules
------
-
-The source repos are all on github.
-
-* Any branch pushed to ceph.git will kick off builds that will either
- run unit tests or generate packages for gitbuilder.ceph.com. Try
- not to generate unnecessary load. For private, unreviewed work,
- only push to branches named ``wip-*``. This avoids colliding with
- any special branches.
-
-* Nothing should every reach a special branch unless it has been
- reviewed.
-
-* Preferred means of review is via github pull requests to capture any
- review discussion.
-
-* For multi-patch series, the pull request can be merged via github,
- and a Reviewed-by: ... line added to the merge commit.
-
-* For single- (or few-) patch merges, it is preferable to add the
- Reviewed-by: directly to the commit so that it is also visible when
- the patch is cherry-picked for backports.
-
-* All backports should use ``git cherry-pick -x`` to capture which
- commit they are cherry-picking from.
