Add explanation of how to indicate the new issues workflow to MAINTAINERS.md: triage -> investigation -> devel. The different stages are indicated using Gitlab's scoped labels (mutually exclusive). These stages try to hightlight that the issue cannot be fixed and it's not moving forward because more info is needed, already. Also, add a section to CONTRIBUTING.md highlighting the importance of helping in the triage and investigation stages: developers often cannot fix bugs because lack of time to investigate, but even users that doesn't know how to fix it due to lack of knowledge of the code base can help thanks to their knowledge on networking. Finally, make the 'triage:issues' CI job to work again, adding some new policies with new automations. The automation will add or remove the labels: stale, help-needed::{triage, investigation, devel} and unassigned. The labels help-needed::* and unassigned will be automatically added to all issues without an assignee. This reflects better the reality of not having enough time to work on most of the issues unless there is some external help. |

.gitlab-ci
We run tests in the gitlab-ci pipeline at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/pipelines
This directory contains a template for generating .gitlab-ci.yml.
It uses ci-templates project.
To get the right version of ci-templates, see the "Regenerate with" comment in
.gitlab-ci.yml. It shows how to install ci-fairy via
python pip. The exact version to be used is hard-coded as .templates_sha
variable in ci.template file.
Whenever changing relevant files, .gitlab-ci.yml must be regenerated.
Regenerate the yml by running ci-fairy generate-template
.
There are also tests for checking that the yml is correct:
- run
tools/check-gitlab-ci.sh
- run
make check-local-gitlab-ci
, which runs 1). This also runs as part ofmake check
.
In both cases, the test is skipped if ci-fairy
is not in the path.
Install the correct ci-fairy
version.
In gitlab-ci pipeline, the "check-tree" test also checks that .gitlab-ci.yml is up to date.
