This is a fundamental issue with using labels to trigger tryjobs and is working as intended. We bring the results of tryjobs forward so that you can see what the last success was. The desired behavior would be to implement triggering CQ via a plugin where you don't need to set a label in order to kick off a tryjob.

Moved issue gerrit:5288 to now be issue chromium:682354.

btw, there is also CQ verified label that CQ can set upon completion of its right: see option `cq_verified_label` in [1]. You'd need to configure this label in your Gerrit project first and make sure it's set as sticky except for rework kind of patches. I think, but not 100% sure, that this way you'd achieve what you want short-term.

Removing Milestone-Afterglow, as it has ceased to have meaning. More refined milestones may be added back in the near future.

Setting Type-Task as this is work that we'd really like to do, but is basically a whole project with work on both the Gerrit and CQ sides, not just a bugfix. This work is a 2018 OKR but hasn't been assigned a quarter.

This issue has been Available for over a year. If it's no longer important or seems unlikely to be fixed, please consider closing it out. If it is important, please re-triage the issue.

Sorry for the inconvenience if the bug really should have been left as Available.
