Patchwork¶
Open vSwitch uses Patchwork to track the status of patches sent to the
ovs-dev mailing list. The Open vSwitch Patchwork
instance can be found on ozlabs.org. The pwclientrc file, required for
pwclient, can be found on the project page
Patchwork provides a number of useful features for developers working on Open vSwitch:
- Tracking the lifecycle of patches (accepted, rejected, under-review, …)
- Assigning reviewers (delegates) to patches
- Downloading/applying patches via the web UI or the XML-RPC API (see pwclient)
- A usable UI for viewing patch discussions
