Just to disseminate the knowledge... Although we like it when everyone just works nicely, you can check the consumption of your PR in the Concourse by looking at the *geode* resource in the *apache-develop-pr* pipeline [1]. This resource passes the PR number and associated SHA to test against, so you can search for your PR in this list.
The first thing that the jobs are meant to do to add Check Status hooks to GitHub that let us click into the specific job, but you can see in the *geode* resource if a job has suffered infrastructure failures. For instance, clicking on *0c5f7* or *ccd90* of your *pr 2730*, I see that the jobs failed to launch due to merge conflicts. (Aside [2].) The PR precheckin is always run against the "if this were merged" version of Geode. If a precheckin doesn't fire, it is often because there are merge conflicts that must be resolved first. Merge origin/develop into your branch and push to your fork, and you should be good to go. <soapbox> And if you use a merge rather than a rebase, you don't have the history (such as the SHAs I referenced above) disappear on you. </soapbox> To head off another potential source of confusion when looking at the Concourse resource, you might notice that some SHAs in your *geode* resource history will be skipped if they are immediately identified as older than the PR's current HEAD. For instance, your *pr 2730* with SHA *98491* didn't get a precheckin run, since it was immediately superseded by the newer *5ffc0* commit. But, the bottom line is: make sure you're merged with *origin/develop* when you open / push your PR and precheckin should (tm) consistently fire, barring other infrastructure instability. Hope that helps! Imagination is Change. ~Patrick [1] https://concourse.apachegeode-ci.info/teams/main/pipelines/apache-develop-pr/resources/geode [2] Currently, we don't get the GitHub hook when there are merge conflicts because the Concourse resource acquisition itself fails and we never reach the task in Concourse to update the GitHub hooks. We should probably investigate if there is a way to add the hooks in the case of a merge conflict, to avoid the potential for developer confusion.
