10/05/2023, 4:55 AMDo we no longer manually create the release notes? I forgot where we landed on that
b
broad-processor-92400
10/05/2023, 5:30 AMYeah, the release notes are currently only placed into the GH release, e.g. https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/releases/tag/release_2.18.0rc2
broad-processor-92400
10/05/2023, 5:31 AM(at least, for 2.18+, I think the 2.16 and 2.17 branches still write to disk. I haven't had time to finish the prep for them yet)

10/05/2023, 6:05 AMyea, it makes reviewing the prep a bit blindfolded I find.. last one I reviewed, I went to the release branch history to get a sense of what was being released.

10/05/2023, 11:25 AMThey could also be placed on the PR description

10/05/2023, 8:56 PMWoohoo! The less work the better 🙂
b
bitter-ability-32190
10/05/2023, 8:58 PM....I just realized. Why do you wanna see the changelog entries? Does it change anything about your approval?

Ready for review whenever
broad-processor-92400
10/06/2023, 3:36 AMIt looks like the 2.17 release build https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/actions/runs/6426486346 failed with errors like:
Copy code
ERROR: pantsbuild.pants-2.17.1rc1-cp37-cp37m-linux_aarch64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.broad-processor-92400
10/06/2023, 4:29 AMThe 2.16 release seems to have built wheels etc. successfully 🎉
To finish it, I'll either need:
1. PyPI access myself (I'm

10/06/2023, 5:08 AMThanks, I see and accepted
broad-processor-92400
10/06/2023, 6:23 AMPhew! 2.16.1rc3 successfully published (along with 2.18.0rc2 and 2.19.0.dev2). The 2.18+ release process is much easier on the releaser than the 2.16 one!
I've well and truly used up my volunteering time today, so I'm not going to get a chance to look at the 2.17.1rc1 build failures above; hopefully someone else can?

bitter-ability-32190
10/06/2023, 2:23 PMAlso I'm glad you enjoyed 2.18+ release process. We're so close 👍

curved-television-6568
10/06/2023, 2:29 PMIt sure is stirring up some intermediary turbulence, but so worth it; thank you Josh!
b
bitter-ability-32190
10/06/2023, 2:30 PMYeah, I think there's be little turbulence if we just made the changes on main and let it trickle through the releases, but my hope is that we get to the future sooner
bitter-ability-32190
10/06/2023, 2:31 PMAlso why I'm trying to absorb the turbulence if I can. It just too bad you write tests for GitHub actions easily
c
curved-television-6568
10/06/2023, 2:33 PMyea, I’m happy to take some turbulence to shorten the gap.
b
bitter-ability-32190
10/06/2023, 9:28 PMI also think we'd be home free if it wasn't for the dot releases
h
happy-kitchen-89482
10/06/2023, 9:54 PMYeah, and these should be the last 2.16.x and 2.17.x releases, one hopes
b
bitter-ability-32190
10/06/2023, 10:09 PMDo we do .2 s?
h
happy-kitchen-89482
10/06/2023, 10:14 PMIf we have to, for a bugfix, but we don't commit to it
happy-kitchen-89482
10/06/2023, 10:14 PMwe'd rather people upgraded to the next minor
b
broad-processor-92400
10/06/2023, 10:44 PMYeah fully agreed on tolerating turbulence. 👍
Maybe next release of 2.16 can be 2.16.1 final? My memory of the milestone is there’s nothing major outstanding (currently on phone so cannot check easily)
And similarly for 2.17.1? (if someone can resolve the release issues, I won’t have time to look this weekend, sorry)
There’s some seemingly major regressions in the 2.17 milestone, but I’m not sure there’s any progress there, and we can always do a 2.17.2 later if helpful (or get these hypothetical fixes out in 2.18.0/.1 instead).
Maybe a quick discussion of targets/timelines for the next few patch and minor releases and any blockers would be a good one for the monthly?
h
happy-kitchen-89482
10/06/2023, 11:00 PMYep, I think those rcs can be the last ones
b
bitter-ability-32190
10/06/2023, 11:01 PMWhen 2.17 is done in earnest, we switch to the simpler releases from here out
bitter-ability-32190
10/06/2023, 11:01 PMAlthough 2.16 is the last "manual" release series
b
broad-processor-92400
10/07/2023, 11:17 PMI filed https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/issues/19996 with the issue blocking 2.17

Do we have suspects for what if anything would’ve fixed the 2.17 issues? AIUI there’s been no explicit work towards many of them and they seem to be intermittent rather than reliably reproducible…
b
bitter-ability-32190
10/09/2023, 6:35 PMCan you be more specific? I'm not tracking
b
broad-processor-92400
10/09/2023, 7:05 PMSorry, on phone, but the issues listed in the 2.17 milestone include remote backtracking, tar concurrency and something about “too many open files”
