Hi all, A while back Sysadmin encountered a series of issues with the DNS resolvers that support the noreply email addresses offered by one of Github.com/Gitlab.com to their users. These issues led to our hooks refusing to accept the email addresses in commits because the domain does not exist (because their DNS servers are flaky/faulty).
As these domains are essentially anonymous and not usable in the long run (and in the case of one of them having faulty DNS servers) the decision was made to blacklist them. Recently however we have had an incident where it appears, either someone has either by accident or otherwise evaded this blacklist by using the domain users.noreply.github.com. That domain has now been added to the blacklist. For those of you using repository forks to prepare your merge requests for plasma/plasma-desktop, if it was created more than 5 days ago i'm afraid your fork is now unable to be rebased and will need to be destroyed and recreated. (as the commit hooks will refuse to admit the commits from the noreply domains - especially now that i've corrected the blacklist omission). My apologies for the inconvenience caused. Regards, Ben Cooksley KDE Sysadmin
