Add explanation of how to indicate the new issues workflow to
MAINTAINERS.md: triage -> investigation -> devel. The different
stages are indicated using Gitlab's scoped labels (mutually exclusive).
These stages try to hightlight that the issue cannot be fixed and it's
not moving forward because more info is needed, already. Also, add a
section to CONTRIBUTING.md highlighting the importance of helping in
the triage and investigation stages: developers often cannot fix bugs
because lack of time to investigate, but even users that doesn't know
how to fix it due to lack of knowledge of the code base can help thanks
to their knowledge on networking.
Finally, make the 'triage:issues' CI job to work again, adding some
new policies with new automations. The automation will add or remove the
labels: stale, help-needed::{triage, investigation, devel} and
unassigned.
The labels help-needed::* and unassigned will be automatically added to
all issues without an assignee. This reflects better the reality of not
having enough time to work on most of the issues unless there is some
external help.

.gitlab-ci
We run tests in the gitlab-ci pipeline at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/pipelines
This directory contains a template for generating .gitlab-ci.yml.
It uses ci-templates project.
To get the right version of ci-templates, see the "Regenerate with" comment in
.gitlab-ci.yml. It shows how to install ci-fairy via
python pip. The exact version to be used is hard-coded as .templates_sha
variable in ci.template file.
Whenever changing relevant files, .gitlab-ci.yml must be regenerated.
Regenerate the yml by running ci-fairy generate-template.
There are also tests for checking that the yml is correct:
- run
tools/check-gitlab-ci.sh - run
make check-local-gitlab-ci, which runs 1). This also runs as part ofmake check.
In both cases, the test is skipped if ci-fairy is not in the path.
Install the correct ci-fairy version.
In gitlab-ci pipeline, the "check-tree" test also checks that .gitlab-ci.yml is up to date.
