[Gluster-devel] Unnecessary bugs entered in BZ, ...

[Kaushal M]

I don't understand your confusion, but maybe these docs need to be reworded.

What both of these want to say is that for a patch to be merged into
glusterfs, it needs to be associated with a bug-id. This association
is done by adding a 'BUG: <id>' line in the commit message. If you
haven't manually added a bug-id in the commit message, the rfc.sh
script will prompt you to enter one and add it to the commit-message.
But, it is possible ignore this prompt and submit a patch for review.
A patch submitted for review in this manner will only be reviewed. It
will not be merged.

The simplified workflow document doesn't mention this as it was
targeted at new developers, and I felt having this details was TMI for
them. But now when I rethink it, it's the seasoned developers who are
beginning to contribute to gluster, who are more likely to use that
doc.
