[llvm-dev] Adding new fields to bugzilla

[Tom Stellard via llvm-dev]

Hi,

I would like to propose adding the following new fields/flags to bugzilla.
My goal is to make it easier to manage bug fixes and merges using automated
scripts.  

- "Trunk Revision(s)" field
This would give users a place to enter which revision(s) in trunk fixed a
particular bug.  This would make it easy to generate a list of bugs fixed
by each release which could be included in the release notes.

- "Stable Revision(s)" field
This would give users a place to enter which revision(s) in the stable branch(es)
fixed a particular bug.

- "X.Y.Z Merge Request flags"
This is a flag you could set to request that the commits in the "Trunk Revision(s)"
field be merged into one of the stable branches.  This along with the
"Trunk Revision" field would make it possible to nominate a bugfix for 
a stable branch without having to create a new bug.

- "Code Owner Approval flag"
This flag you can set to show that code owner has approved merging the
"Trunk Revision(s)" commits to the requested branch.

- "Release Manager Approval flag"
This flag you can set to show that the release manager has approved merging the
"Trunk Revision(s)" commits to the requested branch

What do people think?

Thanks,
Tom
