Commit (and push), yes, but...
Please ensure the subject line of the commit matches our policy:
"libgccjit: Handle truncation and extension for casts [PR95498]"
is a good subject, whereas:
"This patch handles truncation and extension for casts in jit."
is not.
We have some hooks that will only accept pushes if the commit message
has a correctly formatted ChangeLog. The hooks ought to also add
notification comments to bugzilla for any bugs mentioned in the commit
message.
See https://gcc.gnu.org/gitwrite.html#checkin
FWIW in my own workflow I have a writable working copy that I keep for
just doing pushes;
I do a
git pull
verify the build, then
git am FOO.patch --ignore-date
to apply the patch that was tested and approved, then do a last test
with that, then
git push
That way I only push the patches that I've tested and have been
approved, and the other ones are in an entirely separate working copy.
This may be overkill though.
I'm also on #gcc IRC right now on OFTC (dmalcolm) if you run into
issues.
