subscribe a team to series for a proprietary project

Asked by Dylan Millikin

Hello,

I've been experiencing issues with subscriptions to proprietary branches. Here's how it goes:

If a have a proprietary project "coolproject" with multiple series and subscribe a team to a branch (say the "trunk" branch which corresponds to "lp:~user/coolproject/mainbranch" ).
That team can pull "lp:~user/coolproject/mainbranch" but cannot pull using "lp:coolproject" or "lp:coolproject/series" (for another series)
Also, the team doesn't have any list of branches available (either from the project "code" page or the team "code" page)

Similarly. If I have a bug linked to the "trunk" series and subscribe the team to this bug, it will show up twice in their bug list.
Once as https://bugs.launchpad.net/coolproject/+bug/xxxxxxxxx (the team can access this)
and once as https://bugs.launchpad.net/coolproject/+bug/trunk/xxxxxxxxx (the team gets a forbidden error)

In essence it looks like what I'm trying to accomplish is subscribing a team to a series, but this does not seem possible. Am I missing something?

it's not possible to subscribe a team to a series, and currently people who are only subscribed to a bug or a branch can't see series, so, lp:foo aliases won't work for you

Ok thanks Laura.
I'll keep this in mind as a future suggestion once lp moves out of maintenance.
