Re: Bugzilla status for bugs with patches
I've never found working with bugzilla to be sufficiently difficult enough to warrant an instruction manual. Just query for open bugs, pick one that sounds interesting and investigate it. If you come up with a patch, attach it to the bug and add the PatchAvailable keyword.

Re: Bugzilla status for bugs with patches
There is a standard Bugzilla way of marking bugs so that those with (or without) patches can be easily identified. That is the use of PatchAvailable in the Keywords field. Ted has started using this field, and I think this is great. Unfortunately, I suspect there are plenty of unresolved bug reports that have patches but do not have this keyword set. A very useful exercise, therefore, would be to query for unresolved bug reports that do not have PatchAvailable set, and then go through the results and add the keyword for those that do have patches. Personally, I find the use of [PATCH] in the subject of a bug report annoying, and I'd rather see that removed and replaced with the use of the PatchAvailable keyword. -- Martin Cooper "Mohan Kishore" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > I am sorry - i guess i was not very clear. i am just concerned about how to > query Bugzilla in order to only get bugs with no available patches.

Re: Bugzilla status for bugs with patches
The patches are listed in each bug report as links to the attachments. I personally don't use the [PATCH] marker in the name because you can just add that to the keywords field. David Hi, Is it a standard (at least within jakarta) to prefix the bugs with patches available with a [PATCH]? Any ideas w.r.t creating a status called "Has Patch"? I ask because there are quite a few bugs in the commons which have no indication about available patches. I guess the commiters can finish up (or reject) the ones with patches, while the rest of us can try our hands at the ones which do not have any fix yet... regards, Mohan. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
