For non-maintainers this is obvious, since +you can't commit anyway. But even for maintainers, we want all changes to get at +least one review, preferably (for non-trivial changes obligatorily) from someone +who knows the areas the change touches. For non-trivial changes we may want two +reviewers. The primary reviewer will make this decision and nominate a second +reviewer, if needed. Except for trivial changes, PRs should not be committed +until relevant parties (e.g. owners of the subsystem affected by the PR) have +had a reasonable chance to look at PR in their local business hours. + +Most PRs will find reviewers organically. If a maintainer intends to be the +primary reviewer of a PR they should set themselves as the assignee on GitHub +and say so in a reply to the PR. Only the primary reviewer of a change should +actually do the merge, except in rare cases (e.g. they are unavailable in a +reasonable timeframe). + +If a PR has gone 2 work days without an owner emerging, please poke the PR +thread and ask for a reviewer to be assigned. + +Except for rare cases, such as trivial changes (e.g. typos, comments) or +emergencies (e.g. broken builds), maintainers should not merge their own +changes. + +Expect reviewers to request that you avoid [common go style +mistakes](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments) in your PRs. + +## Assigned reviews + +Maintainers can assign reviews to other maintainers, when appropriate. The +assignee becomes the shepherd for that PR and is responsible for merging the PR +once they are satisfied with it or else closing it. The assignee might request +reviews from non-maintainers. -- cgit v1.2.3
