Hum, no one is speaking to allow random person able to merge random piece of code. :-) I think we could have a kind of “web of trust“. Somehow, team members with write access to some dedicated branches and core* members with write access to master. Let consider this example: https://codeberg.org/guix-science/guix-science/pulls/69 Assume, Ingar is a contributor, zimoun is a regular user, rgarbage is a team member and civodul is a commiter. Ingar submits a PR. zimoun makes a comment. rgarbage reviews, and potentially merge to some branch. civodul sees the green light and merge to master. Somehow, a variant of Debian Developer, Maintainer, Contributor, etc. Therefore, I am not sure the frame of your question is adequate. But maybe, I’ve missed something. Cheers, simon *core members: committers in Ludo frame, IIUC.
