Re: Moved extensions from SVN -> Git

Fragment of a discussion from User talk:😂

Ahh, turns out you have an old LDAP account (for SVN) that was never updated for Labs/Gerrit. I can do this for you: what e-mail address do you want to use, and what do you want your labs username to be (this is the username for the labsconsole wiki, as well as logging in to gerrit. Your shell username will remain unchanged)

Hi, (if I got that right) it seems that the "WikiLexicalData" extension is using the "push-for-review" model (since I was not able to do a direct push). Being the only active developer, it means I have to review my own commits, which is not really useful.

Can I change it to a "direct push" model?

We do not allow direct pushing to the master branch for mediawiki extensions. In the very near future, we will be having things like linting of changes for all extensions, which won't be possible if you skip review with a direct push.

In that case, the page http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Git/Workflow#Other_MediaWiki_extensions should be changed because it says Every extension author can choose between two choices here: the gated-trunk/push-for-review model, and a straight push model. For any given extension, we will honor the wishes of the person/s listed as the main author on the extension's mediawiki.org page.
