pull-requests: add merge check that detects WIP marker in title. This will prevent merges in such case. Usually WIP in title means unfinished task that needs still some work. This pattern is present in Gitlab/Github and is already quite common.

Forking Workflow

The forking workflow means that everyone on a team has permission to fork a |repo| and once they have completed their work, open a pull request to have it accepted into the main |repo|.

In a forking workflow, not everyone will have write access to the main |repo|. This means that only those with write access can merge |prs| once they have been approved. Usually, the forking workflow is used with |hg|, and branching with |git|.

Forking Overview

Setting Up a Forking Workflow

Setting up a forking workflow in |RCE| would look something like this.

  1. Create a user group with write access.
  2. Create a user group with read access.
  3. Assign team members to the appropriate groups.
  4. Users with contributions should open a pull request to the main |repo| and set a user with write access as the reviewer.
  5. Once the |pr| is approved, the write access user would merge it with the main |repo|.

For more information about setting up user groups, see the :ref:`user-admin-set` section.

Using a Forking Workflow

If you are on a team that uses a forking workflow, see the :ref:`forks-branches-ref` section for how to fork a |repo|, and also the :ref:`pull-requests-ref` section.
