Mergify is now deprecating the rebase action but the thing they tell you to do (update) creates a merge commit :shaking_fist: |

This will be later used to check commit messages. Signed-off-by: John Mulligan <jmulligan@redhat.com>
This uses the gitlint tool to check for basic formatting of commit messages. In particular we want to require the Signed-off-by on all commits. We were kinda-sorta requiring it but not always enforcing it. ceph/ceph has been requiring it for a long time. I also think it's even more important now that people declare they have the right to contribute change now that more and more tools are being used to generate code.

Add a new check-commits CI job that uses gitlint to enforce some basic parameters of git commit messages in contributions to go-ceph. In particular we want to require the Signed-off-by on all commits. We were kinda-sorta requiring it but not always enforcing it. ceph/ceph has been requiring it for a long time.
I also think it's even more important now that people declare they have
the right to contribute change now that more and more tools are being
used to generate code.
I've used gitlint in other projects with success so I chose that rather than agonize other available tools.
