The github repository
Our Workflow heavily relies on the Nit https://github.com/nitlang/nit/ Github repository.
Here are some details.
Labels
Issues and Pull Requests use specific labels for specific meanings
- API: Bug or discussion about the API of a library
- bug: An identified bug (in library, tools, or elsewhere)
- Feature Request: A feature missing from the language/libraries which could be useful for several purposes.
- forum: Github issues are also used as a simple forum system. So this label is used for users' questions and discussions.
- need_review: The PR need new/additional reviews
- need_work: More work is required by the submitter. Usually is is set after the tests or the reviews shows problems. Sometime the submitter set the label himself to warn reviewers that work is in progress.
