Actually the "sync merge" way isn't as automatic as I would like. The merge always conflicts when there is a new or modified trunk CHANGES entry for 1.10.x. Maybe --accept=mine-conflict would completely solve that. Haven't tested that. Coincidentally, GitLab recently wrote about their similar bot not identical issue: https://about.gitlab.com/2018/07/03/solving-gitlabs-changelog-conflict-crisis/ -- - Julian
