I doubt the 3 extra clicks will make the bulk of the work.

Running the testsuite asks several minutes, so plenty of time to prepare the MR. (Florian's own words, BTW :-))


Depends what client you use. I use commantline and tortoise. And with the latter I frequently close the commit confirm window to fast, and then have to manually browse to the "I just pushed a new branch" ... Annoys the heck out of me


Will it make life easier? Yes.

Well, in the end, that is for all of the core team members to decide.  I am an outsider...

I am very happy with git. But I would likely not use MR (or "milestone" / tag) to track what should get merged.

To start with (but that would only matter if I had to do any part of that merging), those are avail only via the web interface. I then have to go there and either
- collect them, so I can do merging locally
- create another MR, to merge online to the fixes branch.
I prefer doing that with my local git client....

Of course, I don't know who will do that job, and if they will prefer doing it the online way.
