@cindex usertags, for debbugs
@cindex Debbugs usertags
Debbugs provides a feature called @dfn{usertags} that allows any user to
tag any bug with an arbitrary label. Bugs can be searched by usertag,
so this is a handy way to organize bugs@footnote{The list of usertags is
public information, and anyone can modify any user's list of usertags,
so keep that in mind if you choose to use this feature.}. If you use
Emacs Debbugs, the entry-point to consult existing usertags is the
@samp{C-u M-x debbugs-gnu-usertags} procedure. To set a usertag, press
@samp{C} while consulting a bug within the *Guix-Patches* buffer opened
with @samp{C-u M-x debbugs-gnu-bugs} buffer, then select @code{usertag}
and follow the instructions.
For example, to view all the bug reports (or patches, in the case of
@code{guix-patches}) tagged with the usertag @code{powerpc64le-linux}
for the user @code{guix}, open a URL like the following in a web
browser:
@url{https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?tag=powerpc64le-linux;users=guix}.
For more information on how to use usertags, please refer to the
documentation for Debbugs or the documentation for whatever tool you use
to interact with Debbugs.
In Guix, we are experimenting with usertags to keep track of
architecture-specific issues, as well as reviewed ones. To facilitate
collaboration, all our usertags are associated with the single user
@code{guix}. The following usertags currently exist for that user:
@table @code
@item powerpc64le-linux
The purpose of this usertag is to make it easy to find the issues that
matter most for the @code{powerpc64le-linux} system type. Please assign
this usertag to bugs or patches that affect @code{powerpc64le-linux} but
not other system types. In addition, you may use it to identify issues
that for some reason are particularly important for the
@code{powerpc64le-linux} system type, even if the issue affects other
system types, too.
@item reproducibility
For issues related to reproducibility. For example, it would be
appropriate to assign this usertag to a bug report for a package that
fails to build reproducibly.
@item reviewed-looks-good
You have reviewed the series and it looks good to you (LGTM).
@end table
If you're a committer and you want to add a usertag, just start using it
with the @code{guix} user. If the usertag proves useful to you,
consider updating this section of the manual so that others will know
what your usertag means.
