Do you mean something like #8 in [1] and then [2]? 1: 2: In [2], it reads: For patches that just add a new package, and a simple one, it=E2=80= =99s OK to commit, if you=E2=80=99re confident (which means you successf= ully built it in a chroot setup, and have done a reasonable copyright and license auditing). Likewise for package upgrades, except upgrades that trigger a lot of rebuilds (for example, upgrading GnuTLS or GLib). which I understand as: the =E2=80=99staging=E2=80=99 or =E2=80=99core-updat= e=E2=80=99 patches should go to guix-patches and not be pushed directly. Especially when one has commit access and does not follow closely enough to know the status of the very branch. Cheers, simon
