I’d add a few guidelines here, and perhaps we can make it a bullet
list:
1. Be clear and explicit about changes you are suggesting, ensuring
the author can take action on it. In particular, it is a good idea
to explicitly ask for new revisions when you want it.
2. Remain focused: do not change the scope of the work being reviewed.
For example, if the contribution touches a code that follows a
pattern deemed unwieldy, it would be unfair to ask the submitter to
fix all occurrences of that pattern in the code; to put it simply,
if an problem unrelated to the patch at hand was already there, do
not ask the submitter to fix it.
3. Ensure progress. As they respond to review, submitters may submit
new revisions of their changes; avoid requesting changes that you
did not request in the previous round of comments. Overall, the
submitter should get a clear sense of progress; the number of items
open for discussion should clearly decrease over time.
4. Review is a discussion. The submitter's and reviewer's views on
how to achieve a particular change may not always be aligned. As a
reviewer, try hard to explain the rationale for suggestions you
make, and to understand and take into account the submitter's
motivation for doing things in a certain way.
5. Aim for finalization. Reviewing code is time-consuming. Your goal
as a reviewer is to put the process on a clear path towards
integration, possibly with agreed-upon changes, or rejection, with
a clear and mutually-understood reasoning. Avoid leaving the
review process in a lingering state with no clear way out.
I just made it up but I’m sure there are good review guidelines out
there that we could use as an example.
My 2¢,
Ludo’.

Some mbox -> patches tools (like b4) are able to automatically apply
trailers like "Reviewed-by: some ident <...>" found as replies to patch
series [1]. I also like the very clear meaning of it: there's no way
you would type this without meaning "Yes, I officially vouch that this
patch series has been reviewed by me". Maybe this could be codified
here?
Otherwise, seem good to me.

Reading about it at
<https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/maintainer/am-shazam.html>, it
seems 'b4 -t' is about adding the 'Review-by' git trailers found in
replies to *cover letters*, and inserting them on each commit of the
series when applied.
Do you use such a tool when applying patches working with Guix review?
I'm not too fond of adding tool-specific bits to the otherwise
tool-agnostic section above, but perhaps we could add a note or
something.

Hi,
These are a few questions regarding reviewing.
1. What should the reviewer do with old-style patches, like the ones
that don't use G-Expressions? Should we tell the submitter to use
them when possible or is it only a matter of style that is up to the
submitter? Obviously they are hard to grasp for newcomers.
It's probably good for newcomers if we teach them how to use
G-Expressions but we don't really have time to do so, given the
number of patches waiting to be reviewed.
This question could be extended to style issues. Like using %var
versus var.
2. What should the reviewer do when only small changes are required?
The reviewer could do these changes in seconds whereas asking for a
new revision could take days. These changes could be indentation
fixes, removing of unused code, but they could also be more
substantial, like adding a missing `file-name` field. Or changing
old-style to G-Expressions?
If the reviewer makes such changes and pushes them right away, I
imagine they should be documented and explained.
3. Should the reviewer run the program being packaged? The above
guidelines speak about applying, reading, building and linting but
not running. (Making sure it works as expected.)
Thanks,
Clément

I think we should now make sure all new submissions use the current
style; if they aren't we can demand of the contributors to adjust it.
There is a blog post and enough examples in the code base already that
should make this not too difficult.

In general, I think it's best to let the contributor know about the
small problems so they can submit a v2, as they'll learn to pay
attention to these. For first submissions, we can make the experience
easier by adjusting locally and pushing directly for small things. This
also holds for very old contributions where the original author is no
longer around.
I think these two points could be expound as new subsections of the
'Coding Style' section; the current scope is about codifying the human
interactions more than the technical details.

So it does mention trying out the software ("running").

Rather to the one corresponding to the 1.4.0 release, which introduced
these new changes: <https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2022/gnu-guix-1.4.0-released/>.

If LGTM also implies “I run it and it is OK”, then submitter should
provide how to run it.
Otherwise, for what it is worth, I will stop to review stuff that I do
not use myself because reviewing is asking me too much: read some doc
about how to run something that I do not care.
( Similarly, if LGTM also implies “I have read the source code and
it is OK”, it appears to me too much. )
Well, “running” and “trying out the software” seems ambiguous. What
does it mean “run IceCat” or “run Gmsh” or else?
What I like with the proposal is that it makes better defined what are
the expectations behind LGTM. But what means “running” is not clear for
me.
IMHO, it is worth to clearly state:
1. what helps the review process:
« applying, reading the source, building, linting and running other
people's series and sharing your comments about your experience will
give some confidence to committers, and should result in the
proposed change being merged faster. »
2. what means LGTM, from my understanding: applying, building, linting,
carefully checking the code that is merged to Guix.
Cheers,

Although I do not know if it is the right place, I would mention that
“building” also means that the dependants still build or clearly
indicate if something breaks.

That's already mentioned in 'Submitting Patches':
9. Check that dependent packages (if applicable) are not affected by
the change; ‘guix refresh --list-dependent PACKAGE’ will help you
do that (*note Invoking guix refresh::).
I don't think we should repeat it here :-) (also, we now have CI, which
should be more apt at catching breakage here).

We are listing the expectations for the Review process, therefore
repeat that the dependencies need to be checked at Review time makes
sense to me. It can be a sentence as: "make sure CI does not report
new error" or something like that.

Another item came to mind, that could be phrased like this:
Spend time proportional to the stakes. Ensure the discussion focuses
on important aspects of the changes; do not let it be derailed by
objectively unimportant issues@footnote{This situation is often
referred to as ``bikeshedding'', where much time is spent discussing
each one's preference for the color of the shed at the expense
progress made on the project to keep bikes dry.}. In particular,
issues such as code formatting and other conventions can be dealt with
through automation---e.g., @command{guix lint} and @command{guix
style}---or through documentation (@pxref{Packaging Guidelines}, as an
example).
Maybe that makes the guidelines too long though; your call.
Otherwise LGTM!
Ludo’.

…especially in the light of these other items:
+@item
+@emph{Review is a discussion.} The submitter's and reviewer's views on
+how to achieve a particular change may not always be aligned. As a
+reviewer, try hard to explain the rationale for suggestions you make,
+and to understand and take into account the submitter's motivation for
+doing things in a certain way.
+@item
+@emph{Aim for finalization.} Reviewing code is time-consuming. Your
+goal as a reviewer is to put the process on a clear path towards
+integration, possibly with agreed-upon changes, or rejection, with a
+clear and mutually-understood reasoning. Avoid leaving the review
+process in a lingering state with no clear way out.
Well, I do not like: « discussion focuses on important aspects of the
changes; do not let it be derailed by objectively unimportant issues »
because it is not clear for me what means “important aspects” or
“objectively unimportant issues”. How do I gauge?
Sometimes, what does not appear to me “important” at first has then, at
the end, an impact that cannot be neglected. This new item appears to
me as: it is not a open discussion and you should refrain from
commenting if you are not sure your point is *absolutely* important.
Instead of this new item – where my understanding is: avoid bikeshed :-)
and I agree – I propose to amend the item @emph{Review is a discussion.}
by explicitly refer to the 3 other items; which are, IMHO, the guards
against bikeshedding. Something along:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
@item
@emph{Review is a discussion.} The submitter's and reviewer's views on
how to achieve a particular change may not always be aligned. The
discussion is lead by remain focused, ensure progress and aim for
finalization; spend time proportional to the stakes@footnote{This
situation is often referred to as ``bikeshedding'', where much time is
spent discussing each one's preference for the color of the shed at the
expense progress made on the project to keep bikes dry.}. As a
reviewer, try hard to explain the rationale for suggestions you make,
and to understand and take into account the submitter's motivation for
doing things in a certain way.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
WDYT? Does it capture the idea?
If yes, I would pick this order for the enumeration:
1. Be clear and explicit about changes you are suggesting
2. Remain focused
3. Ensure progress
4. Aim for finalization
5. Review is a discussion

While updating orcus to its latest version (0.19.0), I stumbled on a test a
failure, which ended up being caused by the lack of test files in the
repository checkout. These files are stored using the LFS extension in the
repo; when not using LFS, empty text stubs with some metadata are left in
their place.
I've opted to keep the dependency on git-lfs optional for now for the daemon.
The git in-band downloader will only add the git-lfs dependency when the
git-reference object has its lfs? field set to true.

Apologies for sending this series twice; the first time I sent it
erroneously to 66436 after forgetting to run 'mumi new'.

+@section Reviewing the Work of Others
+
+Perhaps the biggest action you can do to help GNU Guix grow as a project
+is to review the work contributed by others. You do not need to be a
+committer to do so; applying, reading the source, building, linting and
+running other people's series and sharing your comments about your
+experience will give some confidence to committers. Basically, you gmust
+ensure the check list found in the @ref{Submitting Patches} section has
+been correctly followed. A reviewed patch series should give the best
+chances for the proposed change to be merged faster, so if a change you
+would like to see merged hasn't yet been reviewed, this is the most
+appropriate thing to do!
+
+@cindex reviewing, guidelines
+Review comments should be unambiguous; be as clear and explicit as you
+can about what you think should be changed, ensuring the author can take
+action on it. Please try to keep the following guidelines in mind
+during review:
+
+@enumerate
+@item
+@emph{Be clear and explicit about changes you are suggesting}, ensuring
+the author can take action on it. In particular, it is a good idea to
+explicitly ask for new revisions when you want it.
+
+@item
+@emph{Remain focused: do not change the scope of the work being
+reviewed.} For example, if the contribution touches code that follows a
+pattern deemed unwieldy, it would be unfair to ask the submitter to fix
+all occurrences of that pattern in the code; to put it simply, if a
+problem unrelated to the patch at hand was already there, do not ask the
+submitter to fix it.
+
+@item
+@emph{Ensure progress.} As they respond to review, submitters may
+submit new revisions of their changes; avoid requesting changes that you
+did not request in the previous round of comments. Overall, the
+submitter should get a clear sense of progress; the number of items open
+for discussion should clearly decrease over time.
+
+@item
+@emph{Aim for finalization.} Reviewing code is time-consuming. Your
+goal as a reviewer is to put the process on a clear path towards
+integration, possibly with agreed-upon changes, or rejection, with a
+clear and mutually-understood reasoning. Avoid leaving the review
+process in a lingering state with no clear way out.
+
+@item
+@emph{Review is a discussion.} The submitter's and reviewer's views on
+how to achieve a particular change may not always be aligned. To lead
+the discussion, remain focused, ensure progress and aim for
+finalization, spending time proportional to the stakes@footnote{The
+tendency to discuss minute details at length is often referred to as
+``bikeshedding'', where much time is spent discussing each one's
+preference for the color of the shed at the expense of progress made on
+the project to keep bikes dry.}. As a reviewer, try hard to explain the
+rationale for suggestions you make, and to understand and take into
+account the submitter's motivation for doing things in a certain way.
+@end enumerate
+
+@cindex LGTM, Looks Good To Me
+@cindex review tags
+@cindex Reviewed-by, git trailer

+within Guix, the following well understood/codified
+@samp{Reviewed-by:@tie{}Your@tie{}Name<your-email@@example.com>}
+@footnote{The @samp{Reviewed-by} Git trailer is used by other projects

+If the @emph{whole} series (containing multiple commits) looks good to
+you, reply with @samp{Reviewed-by:@tie{}Your@tie{}Name<your-email@@example.com>}
+to the cover page if it has one, or to the last patch of the series
+otherwise, adding another @samp{(for the whole series)} comment on the
+line below to explicit this fact.
+
+@item
+If you instead want to mark a @emph{single commit} as reviewed (but not
+the whole series), simply reply with
+@samp{Reviewed-by:@tie{}Your@tie{}Name<your-email@@example.com>} to that
+commit message.
+@end itemize
+
+If you are not a committer, you can help others find a @emph{series} you
