If you're a Fedora package maintainer, we've got an exciting automation solution for you!
At the beginning of the year, we announced a new feature called pull_from_upstream that eases the process of bringing upstream releases into Fedora. This feature can be easily configured directly in the dist-git repository without access to the upstream (as opposed to our previously introduced automation). It is most suitable for simple packages with straightforward update processes (e.g. without patches, or need to build in side tags). Our automation works on top of the Upstream Release Monitoring [1], and here's how to set it up: 1. Enable Upstream Release Monitoring for your Fedora package: set the mapping of the project in Anitya and in the left column in https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/$YourPackage, change *Monitoring status* to *Monitoring*. 2. Add the Packit configuration with the *pull_from_upstream* job to your dist-git repository (see example https://packit.dev/docs/configuration/downstream/pull_from_upstream#example ). Once set up, here's how it works: - Upstream Release Monitoring creates a Bugzilla bug when new upstream versions are detected. - As a reaction to that, Packit: - automatically uploads the upstream archive to the lookaside cache, - creates dist-git pull request(s) at https://src.fedoraproject.org/ <https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/$YourPackage> with all the necessary changes, like updates to the specfile and sources. If you are interested in this, read the previously published full post with the details of the setup here: https://packit.dev/posts/pull-from-upstream. Since the publication of this post, many users have adopted this feature and provided valuable feedback, allowing us to enhance the UX. We're now excited to assist you in automating the process as well! In addition to creating pull requests in dist-git, Packit can also automate Koji builds and Bodhi updates: - https://packit.dev/docs/configuration/downstream/koji_build - https://packit.dev/docs/configuration/downstream/bodhi_update For complete automation documentation, don't miss our comprehensive Fedora release guide at: https://packit.dev/docs/fedora-releases-guide.
