Would you be open to trialling this on GURU? It seems like a reasonable target where it'd seriously reduce the amount of developer / trusted contributor overhead when merging commits.
It depends on how the infra side of GURU is set up. If it's semi-similar to how the gentoo repo is handled I imagine it could be done, but note that this service requires a decent amount of power behind it so the latency between pushing commits and getting them accepted is minimal. While it is quite a bit faster than repoman or pkgcheck, it still relies a lot on bash which isn't known for speed in general. I'm not sure what infra is able to provide in terms of power to make it feasible or not.
If so, what would that process look like, and how would we go about getting the implementation started?
I've already hacked up a rough proof-of-concept (see my other recent reply to this thread) that can be found at [1]. Thanks, Tim [1]: https://github.com/pkgcraft/pkgcraft/tree/main/crates/pkgcruft-git
