Yongkang Li commented on YETUS-1151:
------------------------------------
Hi [~aw]! I see. It seems that buf provides many functionalities. However, we
have a functionality that buf does not provide yet, a checker for enum whose
order is used in serialization. If you feel this functionality is valuable to
be integrated into buf, we are more than willing to offer any help.
> New Yetus check for `.proto` files

> Key: YETUS-1151
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YETUS-1151
> Project: Yetus
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Yongkang Li
> Priority: Major
>
> Regarding some issues caused by the incompatibility of protobuf message, we
> have created a static checker which keeps track of the proto file change, and
> detects potential incompatibility:
> # Add/delete required fields.
> # The tag number of a field has been changed.
> # A required field has been changed to optional, or an optional field has
> been changed to required.
> We have tested the checker on HBASE and found many potential problems. We
> created HBASE-25340 (you can find more detailed information in this issue)
> and maintainers suggest that we could get the tool added as a new Yetus check
> so that it could be easily integrated into HBase and Hadoop CI testing.
> Repository of our static checker:
