Basics
The INFO.yaml file provides information for anyone that is interested in the repository. In the INFO.yaml contains specific information to the main PTL, committers with contact details, meeting information and real time communication and list of repositories under the same control. The INFO.yaml also provides history of changes made to the group like addition and removal of members with TSC approval references depending on the project rules.
An INFO.yaml file must exist on every single Gerrit repo. Even if the a repo has identical permissions to its parent repo.
Inheritance is not supported for ONAP LDAP groups; there is a 1:1 ratio of LDAP groups mapped to repos.
- Maintaining the INFO.yaml is a community responsibility. LF Releng can always be added as reviewers to comment on the file.
...
- PTL modifies/adds a new INFO.yaml file. For new Committer promotions a link to the completed promotion template is required n in the INFO.yaml commit message
- PTL gets the change merged in gerrit.onap.org
- The INFO.yaml verify job is triggered
- Automation will make a similar change in gerrit.linuxfoundation.org
Committer access in LDAP is auto-provisioned after the code is merged
The Jenkins job will also send a notification of the Committer promotion to the TSC list for visibility
...
- Search for the project https://gerrit.onap.org/r/#/admin/projects/ and click on the desired project.
- Go to the "Access" tab in the project
- Look for the "Owner" information
For example:
- We need to know the correct group name that owns appc repo
- Search for the "appc" project in https://gerrit.onap.org/r/#/admin/projects/
- Go to the "Access" tab: https://gerrit.onap.org/r/#/admin/projects/appc,access
- Look at the "Owner" which matches "onap-gerrit-appc-committers"
