Heh, a funny collision of terms.
The green Merged means that the pull request was submitted into the branch.
The DO NOT MERGE text is an instruction for automerger. Android is developed in a truly startling amount of related git branches. Automerger is the tool that propagates commits back and forth to make sure pull requests get to all flavours, versions and devices.
DO NOT MERGE tells Automerger not to propagate that pull request to newer versions of Android, i.e. it’s a fix for the currently released version that’s not relevant to the next development version of Android for whatever reason.
Also seen, although more rarely, is DO NOT MERGE ANYWHERE which tells Automerger not to propagate the pull request to any other branch other than where it was originally submitted, including branches for related products on the same version of Android.
Interesting, thanks for explaining. Like someone else was saying it is already in AOSP not introduced in lineage which makes sense since it is just a cherrypick
But thanks for keeping my phone up to date, it is appreciated ♥
There are a LOT of these in lineage repos. There must be a reason
Even if it was merged I’d be more concerned how on earth you have infinite Firefox tabs open
It’s when you have more than 99 tabs open
What kind of psychopath has that many tabs open!?
I take personal offense to that. How do you not?
As we know, scientists have not yet discovered any numbers past 99
Why did they submit this as a pull request in the first place? Just commit it to a WIP branch until it’s ready to merge. Am I missing something?
It’s been a while since I’ve worked with AOSP, but I had always understood it to be some weird shit with Google’s internal processes. The “do not merge” commits are all over the AOSP, or at least they used to be.
