[jira] Commented: (INFRA-3394) Allow users to link Apache account with a Github account and synchronize project committers with the mirrored Github repositories

["Paul Joseph Davis (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-3394?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12993963#comment-12993963 ] 

Paul Joseph Davis commented on INFRA-3394:
------------------------------------------

I think we should look into disabling as much of the GitHub features as possible and to mark them as automatic mirrors as visibly as possible. Setting up the ability for people to interact around those repos could lead to confusion for users on where they should be interacting with a project (ie, mailing lists or IRC).

> Currently all the Apache git repositories are mirrored to Github - https://github.com/apache.
> It would be great if each Apache member could link his Apache account with his Github account.
> This would allow us to set up automatic synchronization for the Apache project committers with the mirrored Github repositories (Apache project committer would be added as a project collaborator on the Github repository).
> I think this would be useful for many projects (currently it's a bit frustrating because pull requests and issues are enabled, but we can't manage them) .
> Also, if someone can point me to the right direction I can try to help with the implementation.
