The previous commit to open cinder-specs for Rocky doesn't appear to have worked: 2353d9a0d5dd24ae9d0b61c847fd21aad51ea012 It appears that just putting .gitignore in the directory doesn't cause git to actually create the directory. I can see that the patch merged but the directory doesn't appear in subsequent pulls of cinder-specs. Going back to the method of using .placeholder here.

OpenStack Cinder Specifications
This git repository is used to hold approved design specifications for additions to the Cinder project. Reviews of the specs are done in gerrit, using a similar workflow to how we review and merge changes to the code itself.
The layout of this repository is:
specs/<release>/
You can find an example spec in specs/template.rst.
Specifications are proposed for a given release by adding them to the specs/<release> directory and posting it for review. The implementation status of a blueprint for a given release can be found by looking at the blueprint in launchpad. Not all approved blueprints will get fully implemented.
Specifications have to be re-proposed for every release. The review may be quick, but even if something was previously approved, it should be re-reviewed to make sure it still makes sense as written.
Prior to the Juno development cycle, this repository was not used for spec reviews. Reviews prior to Juno were completed entirely through Launchpad blueprints:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder
Please note, Launchpad blueprints are still used for tracking the current status of blueprints. For more information, see:
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Blueprints
For more information about working with gerrit, see:
https://docs.openstack.org/infra/manual/developers.html#development-workflow
To validate that the specification is syntactically correct (i.e. get more confidence in the Jenkins result), please execute the following command:
$ tox
After running tox
, the documentation will be available
for viewing in HTML format in the doc/build/
directory.
