Topic: Non maintainer review


Etienne Marion (Sep 16 2024 at 19:52):

I reviewed #16713, and it seems all right to me, there's just a small indentation issue which I wrote about while "approving the changes" (not sure what this really means). Should I leave it as it is, or should I maintainer merge (I don't know if I'm allowed/supposed to)?

Ruben Van de Velde (Sep 16 2024 at 19:57):

We appreciate the help, but I'm afraid that if you're not a reviewer, "maintainer merge" won't do anything. You can either just "approve" in the github UI or also mention that you did in the #PR reviews stream, which might convince a reviewer or maintainer to look earlier than they otherwise might

Ruben Van de Velde (Sep 16 2024 at 20:01):

(Not feeling confident to approve it myself, but I left one small comment as well)

Etienne Marion (Sep 16 2024 at 20:03):

All right, thanks for the answer!

Maybe this isn’t clear in Ruben’s explanation, but reviewing and approving PRs is very much appreciated by the maintainer team in all cases.

Yes, it is just that you can't maintainer merge, but we will certainly take your review into account (and it will help!)

Ruben Van de Velde (Sep 16 2024 at 20:10):

That's what I tried to start with, but thanks for clarifying :)

Etienne Marion (Sep 16 2024 at 20:15):

No problem I had understood :smiley:
