| 10 | This cleanup job automatically abandons open changes that have been |
| 11 | inactive for a defined time. |
| 12 | |
| 13 | Abandoning old inactive changes has the following advantages: |
| 14 | |
| 15 | * it signals change authors that changes are considered outdated |
| 16 | * it keeps dashboards clean |
| 17 | * it reduces the load on the server (for open changes the mergeability |
| 18 | flag is recomputed whenever a change is merged) |
| 19 | |
| 20 | If a change is still wanted it can be restored by clicking on the |
| 21 | `Restore` button. |
