  • Issues are disabled in this fork, so a sync that could not land had nowhere visible to go.
  • GITHUB_TOKEN cannot push workflow changes or open pull requests that run CI, so pending syncs are pushed and opened as Barnacle.
  • A conflict, a failing build or a workflow change becomes a draft pull request to finish, and a rerun leaves an open one alone so fixes pushed to it are kept.
  • Main is still pushed with GITHUB_TOKEN so the explicit release dispatch stays the only image build.

Issues are disabled in this fork, and GITHUB_TOKEN can neither push workflow changes nor open pull requests that run CI. A conflict, a failing build or a workflow change now lands as a draft pull request to finish, and a rerun keeps fixes already pushed to it.

Walkthrough

The workflow now separates upstream merge preparation, publication, and current-main release into jobs. Merge conflicts are committed and packaged for downstream publication. The publish job pushes verified changes or opens a draft pull request with a recorded reason.

Changes

Upstream synchronization

Layer / File(s) Summary
Prepare merge result
.github/workflows/trogonstack-sync.yml, .config/mise/tasks/github/workflows/trogonstack-sync/merge-upstream
The merge job records the merge status and SHA, packages the merge result and conflict report, and runs verification only for conflict-free updates. A failed merge is committed as a conflict state.
Publish merge or open pull request
.config/mise/lib/git.sh, .config/mise/tasks/github/workflows/trogonstack-sync/fetch-merge, .config/mise/tasks/github/workflows/trogonstack-sync/push-main, .config/mise/tasks/github/workflows/trogonstack-sync/publish-pull-request, .github/workflows/trogonstack-sync.yml
The publish job checks the bundled SHA and attempts to push eligible changes to main. If verification fails or the push cannot proceed, it force-pushes the merge SHA and creates a draft pull request with a reason and, when available, conflict-file details.
Release current main
.github/workflows/trogonstack-sync.yml
A separate release job runs the existing current-main release task when the merge job reports that the repository is up to date.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~40 minutes

Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review ce73c

Large upstream syncs can sometimes push changes to the workflow's own task and config files straight to main, skipping the intended pull request review. Capture the diff output before testing it so the safeguard works reliably, then merge.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the main change: publishing pending upstream syncs as draft Barnacle pull requests. The publish-pull-request task, the workflow's publish job, and the push-main reason recording all support this. The title uses the conventional feat(ci) form and is specific.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description states why the change exists: issues are disabled in the fork, GITHUB_TOKEN cannot push workflow changes or open CI-triggering pull requests, and pending syncs become draft Barnacle pull requests. It also explains that reruns keep an open PR and that main still uses GITHUB_TOKEN. These points match the changed workflow, publish task, and push-main task.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

No eligible functions found in the changed files. Skipping docstring coverage check. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 0 functions across 1 files. (5 skipped: 5 unsupported.)

I’m a rabbit with a bundle to carry,
Through merge and branch, my paws won’t tarry.
If checks pass, to main I hop,
If they fail, a draft goes up.
Then I nibble greens and rest.

The build and tests run upstream code, and main is upstream code after every clean merge, so neither may run in a job that can mint a token GCP accepts for the key.

ADR 6647967335 keeps workflow logic in mise tasks. The publish job can run them safely as long as main's mise and action files only change through review, so a merge that touches them now goes to a pull request instead of the unreviewed push.

- Line 10: Update the trusted-path gate that compares git diff output against
trusted to avoid piping into grep, which can cause a matching diff to be treated
as non-matching under pipefail. Capture the diff before checking it, include
--no-renames so both rename paths are checked, and ensure a git diff failure
stops the script rather than allowing the push.

Under pipefail, grep -q can cut the diff pipe short on a large merge and the check then reads as no match, pushing a merge that changes files the publish job runs.
