"git ubuntu submit" adds ~canoncial-server-reporter as a reviewer by default

[Robie Basak]

Now that git-ubuntu is in wider use than just the server team, we've started getting MPs in our overview that aren't really relevant for us to see.

We've talked about:

Removing ~canonical-server to the list of defaults
Adding ~ubuntu-sponsors to the list of defaults
Adding a user level configuration option to change the default list of reviewers

[Nish Aravamudan (nacc)]

Agreed with the first.
Agreed with the second.
Agreed with the third (user level being .gitconfig git-ubuntu section?)

Finally, I believe the reason we didn't action this before was we were waiting on fine-grained Git permissions in LP, when we would be able to specify a meta-reviewer of UPLOADERS and ideally LP would be able to cross-reference that to those that are able to upload the srcpkg (e.g., it would be sponsors of that specific package, basically). Note, that there is already a LP API that can tell if a given user is able to upload a given srcpkg.

BTW - I love that ~canonical-server is auto-added.
Could we have a local config file maybe in ~/.git-ubuntu where users can define their preferred default reviewers that will be added?

[Robie Basak (racb)]

I agree. I'd like a generic user configuration mechanism for various user preferences, which we'll need to put together first.
