IN_PROGRESS essentially means it is or has been looked after already. |
19 |
Adding the InVCS keyword further indicates the fix is applied somewhere |
20 |
already. |
21 |
|
22 |
So, a suggested workflow is: |
23 |
|
24 |
1) check a bug, |
25 |
a) if you can reproduce, then mark it as CONFIRMED |
26 |
b) not enough info, can't reproduce,... mark or comment it |
27 |
accordingly. |
28 |
2) start working on a solution, |
29 |
a) if you have significant progress, but need more time, mark it |
30 |
accordingly, assign it to yourself, leave a comment, etc. |
31 |
b) If you have a patch but need |
32 |
it tested before committing, upload it there with the request. |
33 |
c) Optionally mark it as IN_PRROGRESS for a & b above when |
34 |
appropriate. |
35 |
3) commit the fix. Mark it as InVCS, if not already, set status to |
36 |
IN_PROGRESS |
37 |
4) make a release with the patch/fix. Mark the bug RESOLVED, FIXED. |
