Electron Unreleased Commit Audit

This repository allows users to query information relating to release branches on a desired repository.

There are four potential actions possible:

1. Reporting commits unreleased for a specific release branch.
2. Reporting pull requests targeting a specific release branch that have not yet been merged.
3. Reporting pull requests which need to be manually backported to a particular release line.
4. Perform a pre-release audit combining actions 2 and 3.

An unreleased commit audit is triggered automatically via cron job on Monday mornings at 9AM PST for all supported release branches of your repository.

Setup

This tool will default to setting the organization and repository name to electron/electron, but you can set your own by setting ORGANIZATION_NAME and REPO_NAME as environment variables.

You can also set the number of currently supported release lines with the NUM_SUPPORTED_VERSIONS env var.

Check Unreleased

An unreleased commit audit can be triggered via Slack using the following:

/check-unreleased <branch_name>

where branch-name matches the name of a release line branch of the desired repository.

Example:

/check-unreleased 9-x-y

To manually query the status of all currently supported release branches:

/check-unreleased all

Check Unmerged

An unmerged pull request audit can be triggered via Slack using the following:

/check-unmerged <branch_name>

where branch-name matches the name of a release line branch of the repository.

Example:

/check-unmerged 10-x-y

Check Needs Manual

An audit of pull requests needing manual backport to a particular release line can be triggered via Slack using the following:

/check-needs-manual <branch_name> <author> <remind>

where branch_name matches the name of a release line branch of the repository.

Example:

/check-needs-manual 8-x-y

Verify Upcoming Release Type

An verification of the semver type of the next release for a given branch can be triggered via Slack using the following:

/verify-semver <branch_name>

where branch_name matches the name of a release line branch of the repository.

Example:

/verify-semver <branch_name>

Example output:

Next release type for 12-x-y is: semver/patch

Scoping By Author

This command can be scoped by author of the original PR. For example:

/check-needs-manual 8-x-y codebytere

will return all pull requests needing manual backport to a particular release line where the author of the original PR was @codebytere

PRs needing manual backport to 8-x-y (from @codebytere):
* #23782 - fix: volume key globalShortcut registration
* #23776 - fix: asynchronous URL loading in BW Proxy
* #22342 - fix: don't run environment bootstrapper
There are 3 PR(s) needing manual backport to 8-x-y!

Reminding Authors

You can @mention authors in the audit to remind them of the manual backports they need to handle:

/check-needs-manual 8-x-y remind

This will produce a list similar to the following:

PR(s) needing manual backport to 8-x-y (from @codebytere):

Perform Pre-Release Audit

A pre-release audit combines the needs-manual audit with the unmerged audit to return a full list of action items that may needs to occur before a beta or stable release.

/audit-pre-release <branch_name>

where branch_name matches the name of a release line branch of the repository.

Example:

/audit-pre-release 8-x-y
