You can not escape it. > That's exactly what happens: qa-tagger will find all bugs associated to a mp and tag them properly (qa-needstesting or qa-untestable, given the case). Note: qa-tagger processes all bugs that are linked to the source branch of your mp, so if you're reusing branches to land fixes (hi Robert :P) tagger will re-tag all linked bugs (even if they're not related to relevant fix). There's a bug filed to fix that [0]. > > (If I am wrong, I am sure Ursinha will correct me). > > [0] https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/qa-tagger/+bug/640566 > -- > Māris Fogels -- https://launchpad.net/~mars > Launchpad.net -- cross-project collaboration and hosting > > > _______________________________________________ > Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev > Post to : [email protected] > Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev > More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp > >
