Broken (can't run odoo at all):
- In Odoo 17.0, the `pre_init_hook` takes an env, not a cursor, update
`_check_citext`.
- Odoo 17.0 rejects `@attrs` and doesn't say where they are or how to
update them, fun, hunt down `attrs={'invisible': ...` and try to fix
them.
- Odoo 17.0 warns on non-multi creates, update them, most were very
reasonable, one very wasn't.
Test failures:
- Odoo 17.0 deprecates `name_get` and doesn't use it as a *source*
anymore, replace overrides by overrides to `_compute_display_name`.
- Multiple tracking changes:
- `_track_set_author` takes a `Partner` not an id.
- `_message_compute_author` still requires overriding in order to
handle record creation, which in standard doesn't support author
overriding.
- `mail.tracking.value.field_type` has been removed, the field type
now needs to be retrieved from the `field_id`.
- Some tracking ordering have changed and require adjusting a few
tests.
Also added a few flushes before SQL queries which are not (obviously
at least) at the start of a cron or controller, no test failure
observed but better safe than sorry (probably).
Breakages:
- the entire http.py API was updated requiring fixing the uses of
`request.jsonrequest` and the patches to `WebRequest` to hook in
sentry
- `fontawesome` was moved
- `*[@groups]` are now completely removed from the view if not
matching, so any field inside of them which needs to be used outside
(e.g. attrs) has to be added as invisible outside the element
- discuss removed the mail tracking value helpers from RPC in
odoo/odoo#88547, so reimplement locally (and better)
`test_inconsistent_target` was, appropriately, inconsistent, but would
only fail a very small fraction of the time: the issue is that a PR
would switch target between `other` and `master` assuming neither was
an intrinsic blocker *but* the branches are created independently,
just with the same content.
This means if a second ticked over between the creation of the
`master` branch's commit and that of `other`, they would get different
commit hashes (because different timestamp), thus the PR would get 2
commits (or complete nonsense) when targeted to `other`, and the PR
itself would be blocked for lack of a merge method.
The solution is to be slightly less lazy, and create `other` from
`master` instead of copy/pasting the `make_commits` directive. This
means the PR has the exact same number of commits whether targeted to
`master` or `other`, and we now test what we want to test 60 seconds
out of every minute.
With the trigger-ification pretty much complete the only cron that's
still routinely triggered explicitly is the cross-pr check, and it's
that in all modules, so there's no cause to keep an overridable
fixture.
The staging cron turns out to be pretty reasonable to trigger, as we
already have a handler on the transition of a batch to `not blocked`,
which is exactly when we want to create a staging (that and the
completion of the previous staging).
The batch transition is in a compute which is not awesome, but on the
flip side we also cancel active stagings in that exact scenario (if it
applies), so that matches.
The only real finesse is that one of the tests wants to observe the
instant between the end of a staging (and creation of splits) and the
start of the next one, which because the staging cron is triggered by
the failure of the previous staging is now "atomic", requiring
disabling the staging cron, which means the trigger is skipped
entirely. So this requires triggering the staging cron by hand.
The merge cron is the one in charge of checking staging state and
either integrating the staging into the reference branch (if
successful) or cancelling the staging (if failed).
The most obvious trigger for the merge cron is a change in staging
state from the states computation (transition from pending to either
success or failure). Explicitly cancelling / failing a staging marks
it as inactive so the merge cron isn't actually needed.
However an other major trigger is *timeout*, which doesn't have a
trivial signal. Instead, it needs to be hooked on the `timeout_limit`,
and has to be re-triggered at every update to the `timeout_limit`,
which in normal operations is mostly from "pending" statuses bumping
the timeout limit. In that case, `_trigger` to the `timeout_limit` as
that's where / when we expect a status change.
Worst case scenario with this is we have parasitic wakeups of this
cron, but having half a dozen wakeups unnecessary wakeups in an hour
is still probably better than having a wakeup every minute.
These are pretty simple to convert as they are straightforward: an
item is added to a work queue (table), then a cron regularly scans
through the table executing the items and deleting them.
That means the cron trigger can just be added on `create` and things
should work out fine.
There's just two wrinkles in the port_forward cron:
- It can be requeued in the future, so needs a conditional trigger-ing
in `write`.
- It is disabled during freeze (maybe something to change), as a
result triggers don't enqueue at all, so we need to immediately
trigger after freeze to force the cron re-enabling it.
Mergebot / forwardport crons need to run in a specific ordering in
order to flow into one another correctly. The default ordering being
unspecified, it was not possible to use the normal cron
runner (instead of the external driver running crons in sequence one
at a time). This can be fixed by setting *sequences* on crons, as the
cron runner (`_process_jobs`) will use that order to acquire and run
crons.
Also override `_process_jobs` however: the built-in cron runner
fetches a static list of ready crons, then runs that.
This is fine for normal situation where the cron runner runs in a loop
anyway but it's any issue for the tests, as we expect that cron A can
trigger cron B, and we want cron B to run *right now* even if it
hadn't been triggered before cron A ran.
We can replace `_process_job` with a cut down version which does
that (cut down because we don't need most of the error handling /
resilience, there's no concurrent workers, there's no module being
installed, versions must match, ...). This allows e.g. the cron
propagating commit statuses to trigger the staging cron, and both will
run within the same `run_crons` session.
Something I didn't touch is that `_process_jobs` internally creates
completely new environments so there is no way to pass context into
the cron jobs anymore (whereas it works for `method_direct_trigger`),
this means the context values have to be shunted elsewhere for that
purpose which is gross. But even though I'm replacing `_process_jobs`,
this seems a bit too much of a change in cron execution semantics. So
left it out.
While at it tho, silence the spammy `py.warnings` stuff I can't do
much about.
Merge errors are logical failures, not technical, it doesn't make
sense to log them out because there's nothing to be done technically,
a PR having consistency issues or a conflict is "normal". As such
those messages are completely useless and just take unnecessary space
in the logs, making their use more difficult.
Instead of sending them to logging, log staging attempts to the PR
itself, and only do normal logging of the operation as an indicative
item. And remove a bunch of `expect_log_errors` which don't stand
anymore.
While at it, fix a missed issue in forward porting: if the `root.head`
doesn't exist in the repo its `fetch` will immediately fail before
`cat-file` can even run, so the second one is redundant and the first
one needs to be handled properly. Do that. And leave checking
for *that* specific condition as a logged-out error as it should mean
there's something very odd with the repository (how can a pull request
have a head we can't fetch?)
From the previous version of `_compute_target` this was clearly
intended otherwise the fallback makes no sense, but just as clearly I
completely missed / forgot about it halfway through (and the lack of
test didn't help).
The compute is also way overcomplicated, it's not clear why (the only
explanation I can think of is that an intermediate version had a
string target but if that ever happened it was squashed away).
- Update branch name to prefix with project as it can be hard to
differentiate when filtering by or trying to set targets, given some
targets are extremely common (e.g. `master`/`main`) and not all
fields are filtered by project (or even can be).
- Add a proper menu item and list view for batches, maybe it'll be of
use one day.
- Upgrade label in PR search, it's more likely to be needed than
author or target.
- Put PRs first in the mergebot menu, as it's *by far* the most likely
item to look for, unless it's staging in order to cancel one.
Previously PR descriptions were displayed as raw text in the PR
dashboard. While not wrong per se, this was pretty ugly and not always
convenient as e.g. links had to be copied by hand.
Push descriptions through pymarkdown for rendering them, with a few
customisations:
- Enabled footnotes & tables & fenced code blocks because GFM has
that, this doesn't quite put pymarkdown's base behaviour on par with
gfm (and py-gfm ultimately gave up on that effort moving to just
wrap github's own markdown renderer instead).
- Don't allow raw html because too much of a hassle to do it
correctly, and very few people ever do it (mostly me I think).
- Added a bespoke handler / renderer for github-style references.
Note: uses positional captures because it started that way and named
captures are not removed from that sequence so mixing and matching
is not very useful, plus python does not support identically named
groups (even exclusive) so all 4 repo captures and all 3 issue
number captures would need different names...
- And added a second bespoke handler for our own opw/issue references
leading to odoo.com, that's something we can't do via github[^1] so
it's a genuine value-add.
Fixes#889
[^1]: github can do it (though possibly not with the arbitrary
unspecified nonsense I got when I tried to list some of the
reference styles, some folks need therapy), but it's not available
on our plan
I thought I'd removed the error message when approving an already
approved PR but apparently not?
However we can improve the message in that specific case, to make the
expected operation clearer.
Fixes#906
d4fa1fd353 added tracking to changes
from *comments* (as well as a few hacks around authorship transfer),
however it missed two things:
First, it set the `change-author` during comments handling only, so
changes from the `PullRequest` hook e.g. open, synchronise, close,
edit, don't get attributed to their actual source, and instead just
fall back to uid(1). This is easy enough to fix as the `sender` is
always provided, that can be resolved to a partner which is then set
as the author of whatever changes happen.
Second, I actually missed one of the message hooks: there's both
`_message_log` and `_message_log_batch` and they don't call one
another, so both have to be overridden in order for tracking to be
consistent. In this case, specifically, the *creation* of a tracked
object goes through `_message_log_batch` (since that's a very generic
message and so works on every tracked object created during the
transaction... even though batch has a message per record anyway...)
while *updates* go through `_message_log`.
Fixes#895
- When a redundant approval is sent to a PR, notify but don't ignore
the entire command set, there's no actual risk.
- Indicate that the entire comment was ignored when finding something
which does not parse.
Fixes#892, fixes#893
If a PR gets approved *then* fails CI, there should be a notification
warning the author & reviewer since
48e08b657b, it even has a test, which
passes (in fact it has *two*, one of which is redundant, so merge
`test_ci_failure_after_review` into the later `test_ci_approved`).
*However* this is in runbot_merge, turns out in
fafa7ef437 some refactoring was done in
order to override the notification and customise it for *forward
ports* with a failed status... except that override never called its
`super()`, so as soon as forwardport is installed the base
notification stops working, and that's been that since October
2019 (had been added in March that year, ignoring deployment lag).
This can be revealed by adding the corresponding check in the
*forwardport* tests, revealing the failure.
This was a pain to track down, thankfully it reproduced relatively
easily locally.
While this could be resolved in the override, might as well fold it
into the base method in furtherance of #789: the mergebot is only
used by odoo, and only with both modules combined, so splitting them
is not useful. And furthermore it things should work fine with the
forwardport installed but unused.
Fixes#894
- Instead of warning about the merge method on ready PRs, also warn on
*approved* (but exclude staged just cuz), as that's really when the
user wants to know that they forgot to set the merge method
- The cron only triggers hourly, but *if* a user approves a PR *and*
the merge method is not set yet, chances are good they'll need a
reminder (if they `r+ rebase-merge` or w/e the cron will just ignore
the PR and it's no skin off our back), so `_trigger` the cron for
validation.
- Also do the same when skipchecks is set as it's very similar.
In reality we might want to hook off of the state transitioning to
reviewed but I'm not sure there's good ways to do that (triggering a
cron inside a compute doesn't seem like a good idea).
Update a pair of tests which would approve a multi-commit PR without
setting a merge method, just because the helper they use to build the
PR happens to create multiple commits.
Fix#891
Seems like a good idea to better keep track of the log of an Odoo used
to testing, and avoid silently ignoring logged errors.
- intercept odoo's stderr via a pipe, that way we can still write it
back out and pytest is able to read & buffer it, pytest's capfd
would not work correctly: it breaks output capturing (and printing
on failure); and because of the way it hooks in it's unable to
capture from subprocesses inheriting the standard stream, cf
pytest-dev/pytest#4428
- update the env fixture to check that the odoo log doesn't have any
exception on failure
- make that check conditional on the `expect_log_errors` marker, this
way we can mark tests for which we expect errors to be logged, and
assert that that does happen
Setting the PR state directly really doesn't work as it doesn't
correctly save (and can get overwritten by any dependency of which
there are many).
This caused setting odoo/odoo#165777 in error to fail, leading to it
being re-staged (and failing) repeatedly, and the PR being spammed
with comments.
- create a more formal helper for preventing directly setting computed
functions (without an actual inverse)
- replace direct state setting by setting the corresponding dependency
e.g. `error` for error and `skipchecks` to force a PR to ready
- add a `skipchecks` inverse to the PR so it can also set itself as
reviewed, and is convenient, might be worth also adding stuff to
`Batch.write`
Currently webhook secrets are configured per *project* which is an
issue both because different repositories may have different
administrators and thus creates safety concerns, and because multiple
repositories can feed into different projects (e.g. on mergebot,
odoo-dev/odoo is both an ancillary repository to the main RD project,
and the main repository to the minor / legacy master-wowl
project). This means it can be necessary to have multiple projects
share the same secret as well, this then mandates the secret for more
repositories per (1).
This is a pain in the ass, so just detach secrets from projects and
link them *only* to repositories, it's cleaner and easier to manage
and set up progressively.
This requires a lot of changes to the tests, as they all need to
correctly configure the signaling.
For `runbot_merge` there was *some* setup sharing already via the
module-level `repo` fixtures`, those were merged into a conftest-level
fixture which could handle the signaling setup. A few tests which
unnecessarily set up repositories ad-hoc were also moved to the
fixture. But for most of the ad-hoc setup in `runbot_merge`, as well
as `forwardport` where it's all ad-hoc, events sources setup was just
appended as is. This should probably be cleaned up at one point, with
the various requirements collected and organised into a small set of
fixtures doing the job more uniformly.
Fixes#887
Using a regex as the pattern is quite frustrating due to all the
escaping necessary, which in this refactoring I found out I'd missed,
multiple times.
Convert the pattern to something bespoke but not too complicated, we
may want to add anchoring support and a bit more finesse and the
future but for now straightforward "holes" seem to work well. I've
added support for capturing and even named groups even if this as yet
unnecessary and unused.
Fixes#861
[^1]: https://docs.pytest.org/en/stable/reference.html#pytest.hookspec.pytest_assertrepr_compare
Add support for the ability to validate *stagings* over RPC rather
than via webhook. This may later be expanded to PRs as well.
The core motivation for this is to avoid bouncing through github which
sometimes drops the ball on statuses, and it's frustrating to have a
staging time out because GH fucked up.
Implemented via RPC, requiring both the staging itself (by id) and the
head commit being affected, as that is necessary to know what CIs are
required for that head and correctly report cross branch on the
various PRs.
Fix#881 (kinda)
if rebased. Untouched commits (straight merge) remain unalterated, but
all rebased or squashed commits now get signoff and `Related` headers
added on top of the already previously added `part-of`.
Implement by generalising `_build_merge_message` to `_build_message`
and having `add_self_references` delegate to it, removes some of the
redundancy / differential handling.
Update the `part_of` helper to also add the S-O-B header to the PR,
although it currently does not reference the entire forward port
chain.
Fixes#876
Displays the entire batch set as a table, along both
repository (linked PRs) and branch (forward ports). Should provide a
much more complete overview.
Adds a copy of the dashboard as a raster render, to link from the PR:
as usual SVG is shit, content-based viewboxes are hell and having to
duplicate the entire CSS because `<img/>`-linked CSS can't run is
gross. And there's no payoff since the image is not interactible
anyway.
Performing manual ad-hoc table rendering via pillow is not
significantly worse, it works fine and it's possible to do *really*
good conditional request handling (hopefully) because I've basically
got all the information I need right here.
In fact it might make sense to upgrade the regular HTML page with
similar conditional request handling, at least for the last-update
bit if not the etag.
Fixes #771,fixes #770
Merged PRs should have a batch which should have a staging, this makes
the treatment uniform across the board and avoids funky data which is
hard to place or issues when reconstructing history.
Also create synthetic batches & stagings for older freezes (and bumps)
Initially wanted to skip this only for FW PRs, but after some thinking
I feel this info could still be valuable even for non-fw PRs which
were never merged in the first place.
Requires a few adjustments to not break *everything*: `batch.prs`
excludes closed PRs by default as most processes only expect to be
faced by a closed PR inside a batch, and we *especially* want to avoid
that before the batch is merged (as we'd risk staging a closed PR).
However since PRs don't get removed from batches anymore (and batches
don't get deleted when they have no PRs) we now may have a bunch of
batches whose PRs (usually a single one) are all closed, this has two
major side-effects:
- a new PR may get attached to an old batch full of closed PRs (as
batches are filtered out on being *merged*), which is weird
- the eventual list of batches gets polluted with a bunch of
irrelevant batches which are hard to filter out
The solution is to reintroduce an `active` field, as a stored compute
field based on the state of batch PRs. This way if all PRs of a batch
are closed it switches to inactive, and is automatically filtered out
by search which solves both issues.
Batch ordering in stagings is important in order to correctly
reconstitute the full project history.
In the old mergebot, since batches are created on the fly during
staging this information is reified by the batch ids. But since batch
ids are now persistent and there is no relationship between the
creation of a batch and its merging (especially not relative to other
batches) it's an issue as reconstituting sub-staging git history would
be impossible.
Which is not the worst, but is not great.
The solution is to reify the join table between stagings and batches
in order for *that* to keep history (simply via the sequential PK),
and in converting to the new system carefully generate the new links
in an order matching the old batch ids.
It's a bit weird and inconsistent to have a PR being staged while
unreviewed or unapproved or w/e. If we compute the state based on
skipchecks then everything is consistent.
Also remove the implicit override of all statuses when explicitly
marking the pr as `ready`, it risks creating difficult to understand
states, and it's unnecessary since `skipchecks` gets set.
Also as with setting skipchecks, sets the current user as reviewer on
all PRs of the batch without a reviewer.
- remove the `legal/cla` and `ci/runbot` context names, which I use a
lot for historical reasons but fundamentally they're not useful to
the tests, the `default` context is generally simpler.
- remove `make_branch` helper as we don't actually use branch
protection and at the end of the day it doesn't do much else
- convert a few explicit PR lookups to the project-wide `to_pr` helper
Move staging cancellation to the batch, remove its (complicated)
handling from the PRs.
This loses some precision in the cancellation message, but that could
likely be recovered (in part) by adding more precise checks &
diagnostic extractions in the compute.
Because `alone` (formerly p != 2) is selected before split PRs, if a
prioritised PR gets split (or a split PR gets prioritised) it will be
staged once as prioritised, and again because split.
Improve the selection of ready batches to exclude split batches
upstream, such that they don't have to be rechecked over and over, and
their priorities don't cause us issues.
Simplifies the `ready_prs` query a bit and allows it to be converted
to an ORM search, by moving the priority check outside. This also
allows the caller to not need to post-process the records list
anywhere near the previous state of affairs.
`ready_prs` now returns *either* the "alone" batches, or the non-alone
batches, rather than mixing both into a single sequence. This requires
correctly applying the search filters to not retrieve priority of
batches in error or targeting other branches.
Staging readiness is a batch-level concerns, and many of the markers
are already there though a few need to be aggregated from the PRs. As
such, staging has no reason to be performed in terms of PRs anymore,
it should be performed via batches directly.
There is a bit of a mess in order not to completely fuck up when
retargeting PRs (implicitly via freeze wizard, or explicitely) as for
now we're moving PRs between batches in order to keep the
batches *mostly* target-bound.
Some of the side-effects in managing the coherence of the targeting
and moving PRs between batches is... not great. This might need to be
revisited and cleaned up with those scenarios better considered.
This probably has latent bugs, and is only the start of the road to v2
(#789): PR batches are now created up-front (alongside the PR), with
PRs attached and detached as needed, hopefully such that things are
not broken (tests pass but...), this required a fair number of
ajustments to code not taking batches into account, or creating
batches on the fly.
`PullRequests.blocked` has also been updated to rely on the batch to
get its batch-mates, such that it can now be a stored field with the
right dependencies.
The next step is to better leverage this change:
- move cross-PR state up to the batch (e.g. skipchecks, priority, ...)
- add fw info to the batch, perform forward-ports batchwise in order
to avoid redundant batch-selection work, and allow altering batches
during fw (e.g. adding or removing PRs)
- use batches to select stagings
- maybe expose staging history of a batch?
Not sure it's going to be useful but it's hard to know if we can't
test it. The intent is mostly the ability to prioritize throughput (or
attempt to) during high-load events, if we can favour staging N
new batches over a split's N/2 we might be able to merge more crap.
But maybe not, we'll see, either way now it's here and seems to more
or less work.
Fixes#798
Because the mergebot crons are on such a tight scheduling, and just
them finding out they have nothing to do can take a while, disabling
them can be a chore. Disabling staging via the project is much less
likely to cause issues as the projects don't normally (or ever?) get
exclusively locked, so they can generally be written to at any moment.
Furthermore, if we ever get in a situation where we have multiple
active projects (not really the case currently, we have multiple
projects but only one is really active) it's less disruptive to
disable stagings on a single specific project.
Fixes#860
This commit revisits the commands set in order to make it more
regular, and limit inconsistent command-sets, although it includes
pseudo-command aliases for common tasks now removed from the core set.
Hard Errors
===========
The previous iteration of the commands set would ignore any
non-command term in a command line. This has been changed to hard
error (and ignoring the entire thing) if any command is unknown or
invalid.
This fixes inconsistent / unexpected interpretations where a user
sends a command, then writes a novel on the same line some words of
which happen to *also* be commands, leading to merge states they did
not expect. They should now be told to fuck off.
Priority Restructuring
----------------------
The numerical priority system was pretty messy in that it confused
"staging priority" (in ways which were not entirely straightforward)
with overrides to other concerns.
This has now being split along all the axis, with separate command
subsets for:
- staging prioritisation, now separated between `default`, `priority`,
and `alone`,
- `default` means PRs are picked by an unspecified order when
creating a staging, if nothing better is available
- `priority` means PRs are picked first when staging, however if
`priority` PRs don't fill the staging the rest will be filled with
`default`, this mode did not previously exist
- `alone` means the PRs are picked first, before splits, and only
`alone` PRs can be part of the staging (which usually matches the
modename)
- `skipchecks` overrides both statuses and approval checks, for the
batch, something previously implied in `p=0`, but now
independent. Setting `skipchecks` basically makes the entire batch
`ready`.
For consistency this also sets the reviewer implicitly: since
skipchecks overrides both statuses *and approval*, whoever enables
this mode is essentially the reviewer.
- `cancel` cancels any ongoing staging when the marked PR becomes
ready again, previously this was also implied (in a more restricted
form) by setting `p=0`
FWBot removal
=============
While the "forwardport bot" still exists as an API level (to segregate
access rights between tokens) it has been removed as an interaction
point, as part of the modules merge plan. As a result,
fwbot stops responding
----------------------
Feedback messages are now always sent by the mergebot, the
forward-porting bot should not send any message or notification
anymore.
commands moved to the merge bot
-------------------------------
- `ignore`/`up to` simply changes bot
- `close` as well
- `skipci` is now a choice / flag of an `fw` command, which denotes
the forward-port policy,
- `fw=default` is the old `ci` and resets the policy to default,
that is wait for the PR to be merged to create forward ports, and
for the required statuses on each forward port to be received
before creating the next
- `fw=skipci` is the old `skipci`, it waits for the merge of the
base PR but then creates all the forward ports immediately (unless
it gets a conflict)
- `fw=skipmerge` immediately creates all the forward ports, without
even waiting for the PR to be merged
This is a completely new mode, and may be rather broken as until
now the 'bot has always assumed the source PR had been merged.
approval rework
---------------
Because of the previous section, there is no distinguishing feature
between `mergebot r+` = "merge this PR" and `forwardbot r+` = "merge
this PR and all its parent with different access rights".
As a result, the two have been merged under a single `mergebot r+`
with heuristics attempting to provide the best experience:
- if approving a non-forward port, the behavior does not change
- else, with review rights on the source, all ancestors are approved
- else, as author of the original, approves all ancestors which descend
from a merged PR
- else, approves all ancestors up to and including the oldest ancestor
to which we have review rights
Most notably, the source's author is not delegated on the source or
any of its descendants anymore. This might need to be revisited if it
provides too restrictive.
For the very specialized need of approving a forward-port *and none of
its ancestors*, `review=` can now take a comma (`,`) separated list of
pull request numbers (github numbers, not mergebot ids).
Computed State
==============
The `state` field of pull requests is now computed. Hopefully this
makes the status more consistent and predictable in the long run, and
importantly makes status management more reliable (because reference
datum get updated naturally flowing to the state).
For now however it makes things more complicated as some of the states
have to be separately signaled or updated:
- `closed` and `error` are now separate flags
- `merge_date` is pulled down from forwardport and becomes the
transition signal for ready -> merged
- `reviewed_by` becomes the transition signal for approval (might be a
good idea to rename it...)
- `status` is computed from the head's statuses and overrides, and
*that* becomes the validation state
Ideally, batch-level flags like `skipchecks` should be on, well, the
batch, and `state` should have a dependency on the batch. However
currently the batch is not a durable / permanent member of the system,
so it's a PR-level flag and a messy pile.
On notable change is that *forcing* the state to `ready` now does that
but also sets the reviewer, `skipchecks`, and overrides to ensure the
API-mediated readying does not get rolled back by e.g. the runbot
sending a status.
This is useful for a few types of automated / programmatic PRs
e.g. translation exports, where we set the state programmatically to
limit noise.
recursive dependency hack
-------------------------
Given a sequence of PRs with an override of the source, if one of the
PRs is updated its descendants should not have the override
anymore. However if the updated PR gets overridden, its descendants
should have *that* override.
This requires some unholy manipulations via an override of `modified`,
as the ORM supports recursive fields but not recursive
dependencies (on a different field).
unconditional followup scheduling
---------------------------------
Previously scheduling forward-port followup was contigent on the FW
policy, but it's not actually correct if the new PR is *immediately*
validated (which can happen now that the field is computed, if there
are no required statuses *or* all of the required statuses are
overridden by an ancestor) as nothing will trigger the state change
and thus scheduling of the fp followup.
The followup function checks all the properties of the batch to port,
so this should not result on incorrect ports. Although it's a bit more
expensive, and will lead to more spam.
Previously this would not happen because on creation of a PR the
validation task (commit -> PR) would still have to execute.
Misc Changes
============
- If a PR is marked as overriding / canceling stagings, it now does
so on retry not just when setting initially.
This was not handled at all previously, so a PR in P0 going into
error due to e.g. a non-deterministic bug would be retried and still
p=0, but a current staging would not get cancelled. Same when a PR
in p=0 goes into error because something was failed, then is updated
with a fix.
- Add tracking to a bunch of relevant PR fields.
Post-mortem analysis currently generally requires going through the
text logs to see what happened, which is annoying.
There is a nondeterminism / inconsistency in the tracking which
sometimes leads the admin user to trigger tracking before the bot
does, leading to the staging tracking being attributed to them
during tests, shove under the carpet by ignoring the user to whom
that tracking is attributed.
When multiple users update tracked fields in the same transaction
all the changes are attributed to the first one having triggered
tracking (?), I couldn't find why the admin sometimes takes over.
- added and leveraged support for enum-backed selection fields
- moved variuous fields from forwardport to runbot_merge
- fix a migration which had never worked and which never run (because
I forgot to bump the version on the module)
- remove some unnecessary intermediate de/serialisation
fixes#673, fixes#309, fixes#792, fixes#846 (probably)
- move all commands parsing to runbot_merge as part of the long-term
unification effort (#789)
- set up an actual parser-ish structure to parse the commands to
something approaching a sum type (fixes#507)
- this is mostly prep for reworking the commands set (#673), although
*strict command parsing* has been implemented (cf update to
`test_unknown_commands`)
If an untracked PR is closed, especially on an inactive or untracked
branch, the closer (or author) almost certainly don't care to receive
3 different notifications on the subject.
The fix requires a schema change in order to track that we're fetching
the PR due to a `closed` event, as in other cases we may still want to
notify the user that we received the request (and it just happened to
resolve to a closed PR).
Fixes#857
Add intermediate forks to a pair of tests, because github now (?)
requires being able to write on a branch to create a PR from it, so
the non-collaborator reviewers were not able to create a PR from a
branch created by user.
