User private branches support in Stash

Mohan Krishnan1

Gerrit provides functionality for the creation of an access rule for "refs/heads/dev/${username}/*" branch. Essentially in our work flow we want that the developer should be able to push his branches onto some server, and be sure that nobody else can delete or overwrite them. Does Stash provides any mechanism to achieve this ? If not , is this feature in road map ?

Stash does not provide this feature at the moment, but it could be coded with a plugin. We will be shipping repository forking in the next release, however which will provide an alternate way of achieving this.

Thanks Seb!

Could you please elaborate how does repository fork provides an alternate way to support

user private branches in Stash . What features will this repository forking feature include ?

seb

It means that users can push branches to their own repositories, rather than "pollute" the canonical repository. They will be able to restrict their own fork to be private (so no other user can push or delete refs)

So finally private forked repo will be merged to the main repo ? Will there be an inclusion of a review mechanism between this forked repo to main repo merge ( pull requests? )?
