[aarch64-port-dev ] AArch64 staging forests

[Vladimir Kozlov]

Thank you, Iris

Andrew,

To avoid problems in a future  (which would require rollback changes, 
for example) I want all us to follow rules we use in Hotspot/JDK 
development.

All changes have to be reviewed by jdk9 official Reviewers before push. 
2 official reviews are required by rules. Me and Roland are Reviewers. 
Other people may review changes too.
Very small changes need only one official review.

Requests for review should be sent to hotspot-dev at openjdk.java.net for 
Hotspot changes and jdk9-dev at openjdk.java.net for jdk changes. You can 
also CC them to aarch64-port-dev at openjdk.java.net for records.

All changes which create new directories, add or modify shared files 
should pass our testing system: JPRT. Roland will help with that.
When we get aarch64 committer status we will help to push changes using 
JPRT.

Later on when you need to do changes only in aarch64 specific files, 
they could be pushed after reviews without testing in JPRT.

For each change a separate JBS report should be filed. Please, add 
prefix AARCH64 to report's synopsis.

Please, make sure Changeset Comments follow official format:

     <bugid>: <synopsis-of-bug>
     Summary: <summary-of-code-change>
     Reviewed-by: <reviewer1>, <reviewer2>
     Contributed-by: <contributor-email>

http://openjdk.java.net/guide/producingChangeset.html

Make sure your ~/.hgrc has following information:

[ui]
username=aph
[extensions]
jcheck = $DIR/jcheck.py
[hooks]
pretxnchangegroup=python:jcheck.hook
pretxncommit=python:jcheck.hook

Thanks,
Vladimir

At the moment,  you are the only one who can push to it.  Hgupdater is not on as we haven't heard from Joe regarding the new JIRA Version.

If you want to add anybody else in the future, just send mail to ops at ojn and somebody (probably me) will take care of updating the server configuration.  AndrewD (and any additional changeset authors) will be automatically allowed once the Registrar adds them to the JDK 9 census entry.
