Unstaged changes can be useful or necessary for some tasks
e.g. absolute emergency (where even faking the state of a staging is
not really desirable, if that's even possible anymore), or changes
which are so broad they're difficult to stage (e.g. t10s updates).
Add a new object which serves as a queue for patch to direct-apply,
with support for either text patches (udiff style out of git show or
format-patch) or commits to cherry-pick. In the former case, the part
of the show / format-patch before the diff itself is used for the
commit metadata (author, committer, dates, message) whereas for the
commit version the commit itself is reused as-is.
Applied patches are simply disabled for traceability.

- fix staging reasons containing escaped quotes (would render as
` ` to the end user)
- remove extra spacing around PR title @title/popovers
- simplify a few view conditionals through judicious use of `t-elif`
and nesting
- make `staging_end` non-computed as it's not computed anymore, just
set if and when the staging gets disabled

Given branch A, and branch B forked from it. If B removes a file which
a PR to A later modifies, on forward port Git generates a
modify/delete conflict (as in one side modifies a file which the
other deleted).
So far so good, except while it does notify the caller of the issue
the modified file is just dumped as-is into the working copy (or
commit), which essentially resurrects it.
This is an issue, *especially* as the file is already part of a
commit (rather tan just a U local file), if the developer fixes the
conflict "in place" rather than re-doing the forward-port from scratch
it's easy to miss the reincarnated file (and possibly the changes that
were part of it too), which at best leaves parasitic dead code in the
working copy. There is also no easy way for the runbot to check it as
adding unimported standalone files while rare is not unknown
e.g. utility scripts (to say nothing of JS where we can't really track
the usages / imports at all).
To resolve this issue, during conflict generation post-process
modify/delete to insert artificial conflict markers, the file should
be syntactically invalid so linters / checkers should complain, and
the minimal check has a step looking for conflict markers which should
fire and prevent merging the PR.
Fixes#896
Add warnings when trying to send comments / commands to PRs targeting
inactive branches.
This was missing leading to confusion, as one warning is clearly not
enough.
Fixes#941
By updating the staging timeout every time we run `_compute_state` and
still have a `pending` status, we'd actually bump the timeout *on
every success CI* except for the last one. Which was never the
intention and can add an hour or two to the mergebot-side timeout.
Instead, add an `updated_at` attribute to statuses (name taken from
the webhook payload even though we don't use that), read it when we
see `pending` required statuses, and update the staging timeout based
on that if necessary.
That way as long as we don't get *new* pending statuses, the timeout
doesn't get updated.
Fixes#952
- Switch to just `default` ci.
- Autouse fixture to init the master branch.
- Switch to `make_commits`.
- Merge `test_reopen_update` and `test_update_closed_revalidate` into
`test_update_closed`: the former did basically nothing useful and
the latter could easily be folded into `test_update_closed` by just
validating the new commit.
And unconditionally unstage when the HEAD of a PR is synchronised.
While a rebuild on a PR which was previously staged can be a false
positive (e.g. because it hit a non-derministic test the second time
around) it can also be legitimate e.g. auto-rebase of an old PR to
check it out. In that case the PR should be unstaged.
Furthermore, as soon as the PR gets rebuilt it goes back into
`approved` (because the status goes to pending and currently there's
no great way to suppress that in the rebuild case without also fucking
it up for the sync case). This would cause a sync on the PR to be
missed (in that it would not unstage the PR), which is broken. Fix
that by not checking the state of the PR beforehand, it seems to be an
unnecessary remnant of older code, and not really an optimisation (or
at least one likely not worth bothering with, especially as we then
proceed to perform a full PR validation anyway).
Fixes#950
The UX around the split of limit and forward port policy (and
especially moving "don't forward port" to the policy) was not really
considered and caused confusion for both me and devs: after having
disabled forward porting, updating the limit would not restore it, but
there would be no indication of such an issue.
This caused odoo/enterprise#68916 to not be forward ported at merge
(despite looking for all the world like it should be), and while
updating the limit post-merge did force a forward-port that
inconsistency was just as jarring (also not helped by being unable to
create an fw batch via the backend UI because reasons, see
10ca096d86).
Fix this along most axis:
- Notify the user and reset the fw policy if the limit is updated
while `fw=no`.
- Trigger a forward port if the fw policy is updated (from `no`) on a
merged PR, currently only sources.
- Add check & warning to limit update process so it does *not* force a
port (though maybe it should under the assumption that we're
updating the limit anyway? We'll see).
Fixes#953
- rather than enumerate states, forward-porting should just check if
the statuses are successful on a PR
- for the same consistency reasons explained in
f97502e503, `skipchecks` should force
the status of a PR to `success`: it very odd that a PR would be
ready without being validated...
Apparently when I added these to trigger the corresponding cron the
lack of decorator caused them to not work at all, at least when
invoked from the interface, consequently I notably wasn't able to
force a forward port via creating one such task when trying to work
around #953
Today (or really a month ago) I learned: when giving git a symbolic
ref (e.g. a ref name), if it's ambiguous then
1. If `$GIT_DIR/$name` exists, that is what you mean (this is usually
useful only for `HEAD`, `FETCH_HEAD`, `ORIG_HEAD`, `MERGE_HEAD`,
`REBASE_HEAD`, `REVERT_HEAD`, `CHERRY_PICK_HEAD`, `BISECT_HEAD` and
`AUTO_MERGE`)
2. otherwise, `refs/$name` if it exists
3. otherwise, `refs/tags/$name` if it exists
4. otherwise, `refs/heads/$name` if it exists
5. otherwise, `refs/remotes/$name` if it exists
6. otherwise, `refs/remotes/$name/HEAD` if it exists
This means if a tag and a branch have the same name and only the name
is provided (not the full ref), git will select the tag, which gets
very confusing for the mergebot as it now tries to rebase onto the tag
(which because that's not fun otherwise was not even on the branch of
the same name).
Fix by providing full refs to `rev-parse` when trying to retrieve the
head of the target branches. And as a defense in depth opportunity,
also exclude tags when fetching refs by spec: apparently fetching a
specific commit does not trigger the retrieval of tags, but any sort
of spec will see the tags come along for the ride even if the tags are
not in any way under the fetched ref e.g. `refs/heads/*` will very
much retrieve the tags despite them being located at `refs/tags/*`.
Fixes#922
This is an approximation under the assumption that stored computes
update the `write_date`, and that there's not much else that will be
computed on a batch.
Eventually it might be a good idea for this to be a proper field,
computed alongside the unblocking of the batch.
Fixes#932
Rather than only setting `staging_end` on status change, set it when
the staging gets deactivated. This way cancelling a staging (whether
explicitely or via a PR update) will also end it, so will a staging
timeout, etc..., rather than keep the counter running.
Fixes#931
Reminding users that `r-` on a forward port only unreviews *that*
forwardport is useful, as `r+;r-` is not a no-op (all preceding
siblings are still reviewed).
However it is useless if all siblings are not approved or already
merged. So avoid sending the warning in that case.
Fixes#934
The FW reminder is useful to remind people of the outstanding forward
ports they need to process, as taking too long can be an issue.
They are, however, not useful if the developer has already done
everything, the PR is ready and unblocked, but the mergebot has fallen
behind and has a hard time catching up. In that case there is nothing
for the developer to do, so pinging them is not productive, it's only
frustrating.
Fixes#930
In some cases, feedback to the PR author that an r+ is redundant went
missing.
This turns out to be due to the convolution of the handling of
approval on forward-port, and the fact that the target PR is treated
exactly like its ancestors: if the PR is already approved the approval
is not even attempted (and so no feedback if it's incorrect).
Straighten up this bit and add a special case for the PR being
commented on, it should have the usual feedback if in error or already
commented on.
Furthermore, update `PullRequests._pr_acl` to kinda work out of the
box for forward-port: if the current PR is a forward port,
`is_reviewer` should check delegation on all ancestors, there doesn't
seem to be any reason to split "source_reviewer", "parent_reviewer",
and "is_reviewer".
Fixes#939
Because the first operation the notification task performs is updating
the commit, this has to be flushed in order to read-back the commit
hash (probably fixed in later version).
This means if updating the flag triggers a serialization
failure (which happens and is normal) we transition to the `exception`
handler, which *tries to retrieve the sha again* and we get an "in
failed transaction" error on top of the current "serialization
failure", leading to a giant traceback.
Also an unhelpful one since a serialization failure is expected in
this cron.
- Move the reads with no write dependency out of the `try`, there's no
reason for them to fail, and notably memoize the `sha`.
- Split the handling of serialization failures out of the normal one,
and just log an `info` (we could actually log nothing, probably).
- Also set the precommit data just before the commit, in case staging
tracking is ever a thing which could use it.
Fixes#909
Detailed statuses are useful in the actual PR dashboard as that allows
direct access to the builds, however in the PR where it's only a
picture it's useless, so fold that information. Also fold it when a PR
is staged.
And while at it add a note / sub-title that the PR is staged.
Fixes#919
The weekly maintenance would not prune refs. This is not an issue on
odoo/odoo because development branches are in a separate repository,
thus never fetched (we push to them but only using local commits and
remote refs).
However on repos like odoo/documentation the reference and development
branches are collocated, the lack of pruning thus keeps every
development branch alive locally, even years after the branch has been
deleted in the repository.
By pruning remote-tracking refs before GC-ing, we should have cleaner
local clones, and better packing.
`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.
A few crons (e.g.database maintenance) remain on timers, but most of
the work crons should be migrated to triggers.
The purpose of this change is mostly to reduce log spam, as crons get
triggered very frequently (most of them every minute) but with little
to do. Secondary purposes are getting experience with cron triggers,
and better sussing out dependencies between actions and crons /
queues.
Fixes#797
Since every cron runs on a fresh database, on the first `run_crons`
every single cron in the db will run even though almost none of them
is relevant.
Aside from the slight inefficiency, this creates unnecessary extra
garbage in the test logs.
By setting the `nextcall` of all crons to infinity in the template we
avoid this issue, only triggered crons (or the crons whose nextcall we
set ourselves) will trigger during calls.
This requires adjusting the branch cleanup cron slightly: it didn't
correctly handle the initial run (`lastcall` being false).
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.
- add context, in case that allows tracking overlap between tests
eventually
- use `-m` to run odoo, requires backporting `odoo/__main__.py`
but I'm not quite sure how I was running it previously, possibly
via odoo-bin? It certainly doesn't seem to work out with a global
`odoo` helper
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?)
Apparently I'd already fixed that in
286c1fdaee but it has yet to be
deployed.
While at it, add a feedback message to clarify that, unlike `r+`, `r-`
on forward ports does *not* propagate.
Fixes#912
The PR dashboard picture provides a great overview of the batch state
both horizontally and vertically *but* apparently people can't for the
life of them go check the actual dashboard when things don't line
up. So expand the "current batch" to a view more similar to
dashboard *page*, which gives details of the sub-checks being
performed and whether they are or are not fulfilled.
Fixes#908
The previous version worked but was extremely plodding and
procedural. Initially I wanted to compose the table in a single pass
but that turns out not to really be possible as the goal for #908 is
to have a "drawer" for extended information about the current batch:
this means different cells of the same row can have different heights,
so we can't one-pass the image either vertically (later cells of the
current column might be wider) or horizontally (later cells of the
current row might be taller).
However what can be done is give the entire thing *structure*,
essentially defining a very cut down and ad-hoc layout system before
committing the layout to raster.
This also deduplicates formatting and labelling information which was
previously in both the computation first step and the rasterisation
second step.
Extract current table generation into a separate function, add an
other function to render an alert / list of PR targets if the batch is
not consistent.
This means an extra pass on the table contents to precompute the image
size, but we can delay loading fonts until after etag computation
which might be a bigger gain all things considered: there aren't many
cells in most PR tables, but fonts are rather expensive to
load (I should probably load them at import and cache them in the module...)
- make sure inconsistent batches prevent merging
- don't take closed PRs in account for the consistency check (unless
all PRs are closed)
- add a wizard to split PRs out of a batch when the inconsistency is
legitimate
- notify that the batch is inconsistent on the PR dashboard
Fixes#911
- 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.
Finally went to fix the issue that web.base.url is not correctly set
up by the test suite and thus things like `PullRequest.url` don't
return the right URL when running tests.
The answer I re-discovered yet again is that one only has to log in as
an admin (`base.group_system`) while providing a `base_location` env
key.
This is done automatically when logging via the frontend, under the
assumption that this is the "correct" url, but when logging in via RPC
it has to be done manually as that's more internal and we might use
e.g. scripts on the same server to manipulate the instance.
