Date: 2022-04-20T17:00:00Z - 2022-04-20T18:13:00Z Location: Jitsi Scribe: ainola ## Attendees * ainola * artafinde * dvzrv * heftig * luna * Torxed * wCPO ## Agenda ### CI [renovate-bot](https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/renovate) was implemented for automating version bumps * Thanks to wCPO for setting that up * [Has a pipeline run on a schedule](https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/renovate/renovate/-/pipeline_schedules) to e.g. update lock files and scan through the poetry TOML files. It will create a Merge Request with that gruntwork already done for us for review. ([example MR](https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/arch-repo-management/-/merge_requests/28/diffs)) * Needs a user to run - we have created a "[renovate](https://gitlab.archlinux.org/renovate)" user to run. ### Versioning (c.f. [previous discussion on the same topic](https://md.archlinux.org/_jsxpX_ySrGwu9u0EmSXtg#versions)) Changes are infrequent but they do happen; we need a way to upgrade the database in a sane way. * dvzrv has been working on [#42 (Implement JSON schema for package and database representation)](https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/arch-repo-management/-/issues/42) and [#29 (Make pgpsig an optional field)](https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/arch-repo-management/-/issues/29) * Torxed is interested in this work due to similar issues in archinstall ### File management Torxed has been working on package file management via the CLI interface. Two stages right now (for testing): * Take a package and move it to a pool (via symlinks or hardlinks so that downloads don't need to happen when moving between repos) * Tag the package for a particular repository Transactions are a central design around this, so we can all expect to have e.g. staging environments still. #### Suggestions for improvement * prevent package removal from the pool if it's active * noop on adding identical packages * Fail if a newer version of the package already exists (Otherwise it's assumed to be a version bump and will be accepted) * Missing debug repositories, needs to be implemented #### Brainstorming * Do we want flexibility to have Subrepositories/ephemeral repositories for testing groups of packages (see [#47](https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/arch-repo-management/-/issues/47))?
