My hope is that with these process changes, we won't end up with long-running branches. Maybe we could add a recommendation, but I'm not really sure if that would help. We still want to merge these changes when they and related things are ready, so it's not really something that can be willed or commanded to happen. > Could we add any automation to remind people if: > > 1. a branch has been unmerged for more than 3 months We can have QA highlight how long the issues have been open for, that's quite easy to do. > 2. an odd merge takes places (e.g. the core-updates merges) I'm not quite sure what you mean here?
