A quick note about pull requests, particularly those with multiple
commits - not just on WildFly but on *all* projects.
In order to efficiently review a pull request, especially a complex one,
it *must* be possible to review it one commit at a time. This means
that if there's a review item on your pull request for a mistake or
problem, don't just add a commit to the PR to fix it. Rather, please
amend or remove the faulty commit completely, otherwise some other
reviewer who is looking one commit at a time is just going to waste time
reporting the same problem only to have to go back and remove it once
the later commit found.
Remember: PR *submitters* have a great deal more processing power than
PR *reviewers*.
Thanks!
