Code User Stories

Blatantly copied from the Registry user story page.

This section contains the story cards for the Launchpad Code team. Completed stories are moved to the VersionThreeDotO/Code/StoryCardsArchive. Priorities are found on the main code page.

Official source package branch for Distribution

Story Points: 5

• As a distribution vendor, I want to be able to specify a certain branch as being the trunk branch for a package in my distribution in order to allow any developer to easily fetch source for a package.

Official source package branch for Distro Series

Story Points: 5

• As a distribution vendor, I want to be able to specify a certain branch as being the focus branch for a package in a distro series so that developers working on that series know where to fetch the latest source branch for it from.

Distribution source package branch listings

Story Points: 3

• As a package maintainer, I want to be able to see what branches have been recorded for my source package in order to collaborate with their developers.

Enabling Source Package Branches

Story Points: 5

• As a web user I want to be able to change an existing branch to have a source package so I can use Bazaar to create and change source packages.
• e.g. I have a branch associated with the bzr product, and I want to associate it with the bzr source package in ubuntu/intrepid

  • e.g. ~jml/bzr/fix-loom => ~jml/ubuntu/hoary/bzr/fix-loom

API for code review diffs against target

Story Points: 5

• We want to be able to provide an API to update the diffs against the the merge proposal target.

Notes:

• API needs to expose work in progress and needs review proposals for a project (source package / branch container)
• API needs to allow the setting of the diff information

• DB classes for DynamicDiff

• LP is not validating the diff text in the API
• Includes conflict count / text

UI for viewing codereview diffs against target

Story Point: 3

• As a launchpad user I'd like to be able to see the diffs that have been saved for my pending merges.

Notes:

• LP UI needs to show links to the diff on mp & mp listing pages

• Diff rendered in plaintext
• Show conflict count from db

Show diffstats for merge proposals

Story Points: 5

• As a reviewer / branch author, I want to see the diffstat for a moving diff, so that I can get an overall feeling for the changes in that branch.

Notes:

• Extend the content class if necessary.
• Extend the dynamic diff to calculate the diffstat on the diff text
• Include lines added/removed, files changed

• Show it in a <pre> blob ala diffstat on the command line

Merge analysis daemon

Story Points: 8

• As a Launchpad user I want to be able to run a script that updates the diffs against targets for my project.

Notes:

• Merge Analysis Deamon (MAD) will be the client script
• A project on LP with the script available for a user to download and run
• This story does not include getting it packaged
• this story does not include getting it working on EC2
• includes minimal HOWTO docs
• also includes some form of testing.

git imports - lp db updates

Story Points: 2

• Data model updates to support git imports

Notes:

• Adding a git option for import type (i.e. extend the enum)

• DB patch to add git data to CodeImport (repo url and git branch [default to MASTER?])

git import worker

Story Points: 3

• The import worker script to do the imports from a remote git repository.

Notes:

• Jelmer is finishing off bzr-git v.1 ETA 2 weeks for stable import ids -- assume we have that
• Writing a new worker script + hair to call it

git import web ui

Story Points: 3

• As a web user, I want to be able to request and view an import from a git branch, so I can feel the bzr love.

Notes:

• Update new code import to allow entering of git repo/branch
• Branch UI update to show GIT import (rather than subversion / cvs)
• Available code import page

Needs estimating

These stories will be estimated in the weekly planning meeting.

Example Story

Story Points: ??

• Description of the story

Notes:

• Any notes.

Needs definition

These stories are incomplete, not understood, and cannot be estimated.

Site branches

Story Points: ?? (too hard right now, need to get confirmation on actual feature)

• We'd like Launchpad to be able to have user defined sites for personal pages and projects.

Notes:

• Add a table for SiteBranches with links to one of Person, Product, Project

  • We want this instead of fields on respective tables as we may well want to add an emum for any given link to specify pre-processing options (none, rest, some wiki processing et al).
• Content class
• Web UI for configuring the behaviour
• Branch job to checkout/update
• LP subdomain to host on (site.launchpad.net) ?
• Machine to host it on (quotas?)
