illumos gate README - Sept 12, 2010.

This is the illumos gate. This is the illumos source tree. It contains

the following subdirectories:

usr/src - The actual source code

exception_lists - These are lists of exceptional cases

used to limit noise during builds.

Ideally this directory would consist of

only empty files.

Integration Rules:

All changes must have been reviewed, and approved by and advocate

(below). A code review may be performed by someone other than the

advocate, but the final integration should still be approved by the

advocate.

The advocate will want to see your webrev and hg outgoing -v. The

advocate will also ask about your testing, and may ask to see your

build logs.

All changes must adhere to typical ON style and quality rules.

For example, pass full cstyle, applicable lint rules, etc.

All commits must include either a CDDL license, unless

approved otherwise by the gatekeeper, or the modified code

already carries a different license. Exceptions shall require

the approval of the gatekeeper.

Hg commits should have comments of the following form:

1234 This is a sample bug report synopsis

4567 If you have a second bug synopsis...

Reviewed by: codereviewer@somewhere.net

Approved by: gatekeeper@somewhere.else.com

Each commit must have at least one bug id that is listed in the

illumos-gate project at www.illumos.org.

Branches:

Please talk to the gatekeeper about personal branches. In general,

they will be allowed as long as we don't go *too* wild on them.
