17 The description of InVCS keyword in bugzilla is:
18 InVCS Fix has been added to a VCS(either CVS, SVN, Git, ...)
19 repository. Will be closed when fixes are applied to a stable level package.
20
21 A bug isn't resolved until it is fixed in a stable package (for packages
22 ever in stable to begin with), but InVCS keyword can be used by
23 developers to filter out the bugs for issues to work with. I oppose a
24 change to that behavior, although I would like to see it being used more
25 consistently as it seems quite a few developers are neglecting the
26 stable tree.
