My PR is failing CI about formatting an unrelated file 🤯 https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/18433
w
…maybe due to https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/18431#event-8710734212 …? but i’m not sure how.
(mine too, btw.)
ahh. probably a collision between @happy-kitchen-89482’s PR and https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/17480

I think this is something a merge queue would've caught. Is that something we should look into. @busy-vase-39202 is there space on Mondays agenda?
b
Yeah. But please discuss on slack first. If it can be resolved here, fab.

One thing to note is I think we couldn't have flaky tests, or else PRs might now get merged
I don't know what happens on merge queue CI failure, other than the PR not being merged

based on my last read, it’s pretty configurable. but yea, someone would need to babysit a trial run, and explain it to people.
we have collision issues roughly… twice a year though. so not sure whether it’s strictly necessary if it doesn’t have other benefits.

True. That said, any effort to de-flake our tests would pay off in spades regardless of whether we then added a merge queue. So that step at least is important.
