Applying papers to the Working Draft

This page describes the process by which papers are applied to the Working Draft.

• After the straw poll (formerly known as the formal motion) passed in WG21 plenary, create a github issue with the title "[2018-06 CWG Motion 1] PxxxxRx <paper title without 'Wording for'>" and milestone post-2018-06, where the milestone name contains the month of the date of the pertinent WG21 closing plenary.
• Assign the github issue to the person transcribing to LaTeX.
• The name of the branch is "motions-2018-06-cwg-1" (see above for numbering scheme).
• Accumulate commits on the branch; use "Fixup" as the first word in the commit message to indicate minor typo repairs for the wording in the paper; anything else needs a verbose commit message. Never squash commits on a branch. The Project Editor will squash the "fixup" commits when merging to the main branch.
• Create a pull request once the transcription to LaTeX is complete and assign the milestone post-2018-06. Make sure to put "Fixes: #<number of corresponding github issue>" into the pull request (but not the commit message).
• The reviewer marks himself as reviewer for the pull request and may use the inline comment facility of github for review comments.
• Once review has finished, the reviewer marks the pull request as approved.
• The Project Editor closes the pull request and the issue when merging is complete.
