What happens after my patch is received?

Trac creates a ticket for the submission, and you will receive an automatic reply with details of the ticket identifier. This identifier should be used in all further correspondence concerning the submission.

Everyone on the list sees the submission, and can comment on it. An EFS project team member will make sure you have submitted your EFS Contributor Agreement before the patch or feature is accepted. A developer with git commit authority will commit it to git once it is clear that it is the right thing to do.

Even developers with git commit authority stick to this scheme for larger or more complex changes, to allow time for peer review.

A list of all unresolved tickets is available.
