Description Maxime Porhel CLA 2015-07-07 06:18:07 EDT
Hello,

As asked by Pierre-Charles in bug 417187 and Laurent in bug 441604, I also need shell access on build.eclipse.org (and in particular to the download area) to be able to publish builds for the Sirius (modeling.sirius) project. 

My login: mporhel.

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

Maxime

As you have a HIPP with appropriate permissions to write to the download area, why don't you use it to publish builds of Sirius? 

I am a bit picky, but this is only to understand what is preventing you from using your HIPP. I will grant you shell access if you confirm you still need it.

Our HIPP only published nightlies. The request is for Maxime to be able to promote specific nightlies as Stable or Milestone build, as per https://wiki.eclipse.org/Sirius/Releng, when both Laurent and I (who usually do it) are unavailable (which will happen this summer).

As Mikael has suggested, we're a bit picky with shell access.  Could those promotion steps not be contained within Hudson jobs?
Comment 4 Pierre-Charles David CLA 2015-07-07 11:17:14 EDT
You were not that picky last year in giving shell access to Laurent Redor https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=417187#c1 :)

But I completely understand the concerns (and agree with them). I'll have a look at how much work a promotion job would require.

Closing as 'wontfix' as using HIPP job to do the deployment is now our recommended practice.
