Description Leonardo Sandoval Gonzalez 2017-01-04 17:59:25 UTC
As the title indicated, patchwork is creating new series items in its database when users reply to a particular patch. What it should be happening is that any reply should be considered as comment in patchwork and no series creation should be done.

So far, I have found two examples:

* series created on behalf on a 'ping' reply from the submitter:
https://patchwork.openembedded.org/series/4578/

* new revision created on behalf of reply

https://patchwork.openembedded.org/series/4506/#rev2

A patch that addresses both this and bug 10764 can be seen in:
https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2017-January/033835.html

this is implemented for testing in the staging instance:

This has been implemented in production patchwork:
