Oleg does not need them, but I'd like to get releases sooner perhaps so I
might give RMing a go if there a bug fix I just must have ASAP.

Do you intend to abstain from your vote? Or is this an indirect +1?

Hi folks,

I am casting this vote for the previously discussed Git guidelines for all
committers to make life easier for everyone. If the vote passes, every
committer must abide to this.

The guidelines:
= Typical Issue Workflow =

 1. Branch off a release branch (e.g., 4.4.x, 5.0.x) ({{{git checkout -b
<release branch>/<JIRA id> master}}}) where {{{<JIRA id>}}} being the JIRA
issue you have assigned to yourself, e.g., HTTPCORE-123 or HTTPCLIENT-689.
Exmaple: {{{git checkout -b 4.4.x/HTTPCORE-123 4.4.x}}}.
 1. Work on your issue and create as many commits as you want/need
 1. Polish it, squash it or fix it up into a single commit
 1. Ask for a review if you are uncertain
 1. Take care of a proper commit message (good reads: [[
https://chris.beams.io/posts/git-commit/|1]] and [[
https://github.com/erlang/otp/wiki/Writing-good-commit-messages|2]]): Put
the title of the JIRA issue, e.g., [HTTPCORE-123] Memory leak in response,
in the first line, followed by an explanation why you did take this
approach. The ticket desc contains the issue, your commit message contains
the solution. If in doubt, ask for help and give people a couple of days to
react.
 1. Request the release manager to merge your banch back to the release
branch and make sure that this merge won't incur a merge commit
 1. When you close the issue, put a link to your commit to create a direct
relation between issue and solution.

=  Side Notes =

 1. Never rewrite (rebase) history on master or any other long-lived
branch because you will break others. Only the release manager is entitled
to clean up history right before a release if it is absolutely necessary
 1. If a change comes for a PR on GitHub:
   * Apply the same above rules
   * Don't steal authorship
   * Let the reporter polish his work
   * Amend the message at the end with "This closes/fixes #xy" and push.

Link: https://wiki.apache.org/HttpComponents/GitGuidelines

Vote is open until 2017-05-25 00:00 Etc/UTC.

[ ] +1 Committers must abide to these Git guidelines while working on the
code
[ ] -1 I do not agree with this guideline

We need at least three binding votes from HC members.
