blocking-issue-creator
What it does
The blocking-issue-creator tool maintains
Tide blocker issues
that prevent code from being merged into OCP repositories' branches that are not open to development.
Why it exists
During
the OCP development lifecycle
, some branches are blocked for merges, because their content is automatically fast-forwarded to the content of another
branch. To prevent mistakes, we use Tide's merge blocker issue feature to block all merges to these branches, and use
the blocking-issue-creator tool to ensure that all affected repositories have a correct merge blocker issue at all
times.
How it works
The tool takes current and future OCP versions an input, and then iterates over ci-operator configuration directory to find all configurations that promote images to OCP of the given versions to discover repositories and branches that are not open for merges. For all repositories discovered, it ensures that the corresponding Tide merge blocker issue exists, by either creating it or updating it if it already exists.
How is it deployed
The periodic
job periodic-openshift-release-merge-blockers (definition)
uses blocking-issue-creator to
create merge blocking issues
.
