I pushed for-next a bit after this email.

The workflow is far from optimal, because it has two stages:
1. Iterate over each pull email, check, merge and eventually push only
this branch,

2. Merge to for-next and document the merges for internal
accounting/tracing. I guess I could merge it after each stage (1) above.

The bigger problem is lack of replies from pw-bot.


@Konstantin,
I use modified Rob's script to go over patch/pull queue in Patchwork:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-soc/list/?state=*

I deal with them one-by-one, so when I finish merging, I want to be sure
that Patchwork status is updated, thus through the script I mark it
"Accepted".
Like this one:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-soc/patch/cover.1773399675.git.geert+renesas@glider.be/

Around then - can be just before or after - I push the updated branch to
git.kernel.org. I fear that because the pull is manually updated in
Patchwork to "Accepted", pw-bot ignores it and does not send the
notification.

Is it feasible to change pw-bot so it will notify even if it is marked
as "Accepted"? Or any ideas how to change the flow to have both:
A. pw-bot reply,
B. Be 100% sure that Patchwork status is updated (allow my manual update
via script)?


Best regards,
Krzysztof
