(These are all of the projects that had pending issues. This is not
all of the groups that actually rely upon this code...)
The recent JIRA upgrade broke PreCommit-Admin.
This breakage was obviously an unintended consequence. This python
code hasn’t been touched in a very long time. In fact, it was still coming
from Hadoop SVN tree as it had never been migrated to git. So it isn’t too
surprising that after all this time something finally broke it.
Luckily, Apache Yetus was already in the progress of adopting it for a
variety of reasons that I won't go into here. With the breakage, this work
naturally became more urgent. With the help of the Apache Yetus community
doing some quick reviews, I just switched PreCommit-Admin over to using the
master version of the equivalent code in the Yetus source tree. As soon as the
community can get a 0.7.0 release out, we’ll switch it over from master to
0.7.0 so that it can follow our regular release cadence. This also means that
JIRA issues can be filled against Yetus for bugs seen in the code base or for
feature requests. [Hopefully with code and docs attached. :) ]
In any case, with the re-activation of this job, all unprocessed jobs
just kicked off. So don't be too surprised by the influx of feedback.
As a sidenote, there are some other sticky issues with regards to
precommit setups on Jenkins. I'll be sending another note in the future on
that though. I've had enough excitement for today. :)
Thanks!
