Hello
I have being contributing to i915 for the past 2 years and part of my work is update the PCI ids of Intel devices in libdrm. Being able to push my reviewed patches would be really helpful, please consider this request.
This is somewhat orthogonal to your access request, but libdrm now uses Merge Requests ( https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/drm/merge_requests), which means if you post a change and it's been reviewed, any one of the 100+ members can click the "merge" button for you, so not having access yourself shouldn't be an issue, especially with the number of Intel devs who do have access.
So CONTRIBUTING.rst should be updated with that new option but I bet most of the devs will keep only checking the mail list.
(It also means changes are tested (although mostly build-tested for now) before they are merged, which reduces the frequency of breakages, especially subtle ones.)
You can still request access if you want by opening an issue (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/drm/issues/new), but since you have very few commits you'll need approval from another member; I suggest you cc Lucas (@demarchi) & Rodrigo (@vivijim) by tagging them in your issue.
That should also be in CONTRIBUTING.rst
Hope this helps :)
I will talk with Lucas and Rodrigo, thanks for bringing light to the new process
Thanks
Cheers, Eric
