<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Hi, Sergii<br><br></div>thanks for the question. It's not first time that this topic is raised and from first view it could seem that branching would help to that sort of issues.<br><br></div>Although it's not the case. Tripleo-quickstart(-extras) is part of CI code, as well as tripleo-ci repo which have never been branched. The reason for that is relative small impact on CI code from product branching. Think about backport almost *every* patch to oooq and extras to all supported branches, down to newton at least. This will be a really *huge* price and non reasonable work. Just think about active maintenance of 3-4 versions of CI code in each of 3 repositories. It will take all time of CI team with almost zero value of this work.<br><br></div><div>What regards patch you listed, we would have backport this change to *every* branch, and it wouldn't really help to avoid the issue. The source of problem is not branchless repo here.<br><br></div><div>Regarding catching such issues and Bogdans point, that's right we added a few jobs to catch such issues in the future and prevent breakages, and a few running jobs is reasonable price to keep configuration working in all branches. Comparing to maintenance nightmare with branches of CI code, it's really a *zero* price.<br><br></div><div>Thanks<br><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, May 23, 2018 at 3:43 PM, Sergii Golovatiuk <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:sgolovat@redhat.com" target="_blank">sgolovat@redhat.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hi,<br>

Looking at [1], I am thinking about the price we paid for not<br>
branching tripleo-quickstart. Can we discuss the options to prevent<br>
the issues such as [1]? Thank you in advance.<br>
