15 I'm wondering what everyone thinks of having a --nonag option to
16 repoman and shoving some of the more trivial/style-related repoman
17 'warnings' into a 'nag' level warning? IIRC at least one of the QA
18 team members is so tired of the warnings that they want to make every
19 single one of them errors; the --nonag option would allow those
20 warnings to remain in repoman (ie to help guide new dev's or non-dev's
21 using repoman on their local repos) but since they don't relate to
22 actual technical breakage they can just be turned off during QA runs, etc.

24 Thoughts?
