Releases: annotated tags, release/vX.Y branches, and openrepotools on TestPyPI and PyPI from v1.1.0 #228

Open

Description

@brettheap

Lane openRepoTools-3, 2026-10-17, on Brett Heap's word.

Brett asked, verbatim: "lets setup tagging and release branches. we will publish on pypi. lets assume we are currently on 1.0.0 and we will do our first real release on pypi with v1.1.0. look at the way we did this for openRepoShape and lets do similar. there is an issue for openRepoShape to do the branches with releases I think."

Brett's decisions (2026-10-17T20:5xZ)

  1. When v1.1.0 is published: after the triad cutover.
  2. Baseline: an annotated v1.0.0 tag and a GitHub Release on main aaa7bc8. Done: the tag is object 6a826f8, and the Release was published at 20:57:57Z. It is not on PyPI.
  3. Package content: the whole tool payload, installed offline. --install learns to skip a command that pipx placed, as Publish openRepoShape to TestPyPI and PyPI as openreposhape, so one pipx install puts the tools and git-filter-repo on any machine (design first) openRepoShape#563 did.
  4. Merging: lane 3 squash-merges the release-setup PRs once they are reviewed and green. Tags, the release branch and every PyPI upload still wait for Brett's word and his approval in the pypi environment.

The model: openRepoShape's release process as of 2026-10-17

The plan for openRepoTools

This work is governed: one OpenSpec change and one Speckit feature (006-…).

  1. The OpenSpec change, then the Speckit spec, plan and tasks.
  2. The package.
    • pyproject.toml: hatchling, the version read dynamically from the stamp, the name openrepotools, Python ≥ 3.9, no dependencies, and the console script openRepoTools.
    • src/openrepotools/, with the payload force-included byte for byte.
    • A stamped --version. README.md's "There is no version number here" is rewritten.
    • --install skips a target that pipx placed.
  3. The release workflow. release.yml and its hash locks, adapted from openRepoShape. tests.yml gains a release/v* push trigger and a package job.
  4. The docs. docs/release-notes/v1.0.0.md (the baseline Release's text) and a draft v1.1.0.md. The release procedure goes in release.yml's header.
  5. Brett's acts on GitHub and pypi.org:
    • the environments testpypi and pypi, with reviewer brettheap and the deployment rule tag v*;
    • a v* tag ruleset;
    • pending trusted publishers on test.pypi.org and pypi.org: project openrepotools, owner opensoft, repository openRepoTools, workflow release.yml, environments testpypi and pypi. They are re-pointed at openRepoTools-code at the cutover.
  6. A TestPyPI rehearsal dispatch.
  7. After the cutover: tag v1.1.0 in openRepoTools-code, publish it, and cut release/v1.1.

Coordination with the migration (#186, lane openRepoTools-1)

  • New root paths. pyproject.toml, src/, .github/workflows/release.yml and docs/release-notes/ must be in the regenerated adoption plan, or check refuses them as plan-uncovered.
  • Tags do not carry over to the legs.
  • Trusted publishers are per repository.

The name. openrepotools and its close variants are free on PyPI and TestPyPI as of 2026-10-17.

Related: #186, opensoft/openRepoShape#850, #852 and #563.

    Lane openRepoTools-3, 2026-10-17T21:51Z: Brett Heap's answers to the alignment review's questions. He gave them in lane 3's session (team-002).

    1. The pipx link: skip it. When openRepoTools --install finds the openRepoTools command that pipx placed, it skips that one target. It places the other 16 files, and it prints pipx upgrade openrepotools as the way to update the skipped command. Every other link is still refused.
    2. The rehearsal: upload 1.1.0rc1 to TestPyPI. A real pre-release upload proves the workflow, TestPyPI publishing and the pipx install end to end. It runs on the annotated tag v1.1.0rc1, which still needs Brett's word, and on his approval of the testpypi deployment. The workflow's PyPI step refuses every pre-release. This departs from openRepoShape, which uploads nothing before a final release.
    3. pypi.org: no trusted publisher for opensoft/openRepoTools. Nothing will ever upload to PyPI from this repository, and a pending publisher does not reserve the name. Brett creates the pypi.org publisher for openRepoTools-code at the cutover. This supersedes the pypi.org part of plan step 5 above. The test.pypi.org publisher for this repository is still needed, for the rc rehearsal.
    4. The openRepoShape pin, for Triad migration (feature 004-migrate-to-triad): execution tracking under Brett Heap's word of 2026-10-07 #186: wait for openRepoShape v1.1.0, and pin openRepoTools straight to it, skipping v1.0.0. That means one pin update and one migration rehearsal, then the cutover. Lane 3 has told lane 1 on Triad migration (feature 004-migrate-to-triad): execution tracking under Brett Heap's word of 2026-10-07 #186.

    Also from the alignment review. Its findings are being applied to proposal.md on 006-release-pypi, and the council runs after that. The findings that matter outside the change:

    • The code leg's LICENSE already comes from T006's patch code-0001.
    • The stamp must record the source repository, because --version would otherwise name the assembly after the cutover.
    • The tree digest is computed by the pinned upstream/openRepoShape/scripts/repo_shape.py, with the build checkout at submodules: true.

    Lane openRepoTools-3 → all lanes, 2026-10-20T11:4xZ: row 13. On Brett Heap's word ("yes, tag v1.1.0rc1 and dispatch it"), lane 3 now makes the annotated tag v1.1.0rc1 on main 90eed74 and dispatches release.yml on it.

    • What it does: build and verify runs; then publish to TestPyPI, which waits for his approval in testpypi; then the three install checks on TestPyPI's file.
    • What it does not do: the pypi job is skipped for a pre-release, main does not move, and no adopt/* ref is made.
    • Results follow here.

    Lane openRepoTools-3 → all lanes, 2026-10-20T11:5xZ: row 13's rc1 rehearsal is done: openrepotools 1.1.0rc1 is on TestPyPI, and the install checks passed on TestPyPI's own file.

    • The run, 39417405752, was release.yml dispatched on the annotated tag v1.1.0rc1 (object f6e7700, on main 90eed74):
      • build and verify passed. It checked that the tag is annotated and at the run's commit, and that the commit is on main.
      • publish to TestPyPI passed after Brett Heap's approval in testpypi. It used trusted publishing, with no token.
      • The three install checks passed (ubuntu and macOS on Python 3.x, and ubuntu on 3.9), each fetching the wheel from TestPyPI.
      • publish to PyPI was skipped, as it is for every pre-release.
    • TestPyPI serves exactly one file, openrepotools-1.1.0rc1-py3-none-any.whl, sha256 9babb294b8582c239f6aeb5b9034e7bcc26dd94f69ab46da52d8fe8775d87faf, uploaded at 11:55:42Z. It is byte-for-byte the digest the build recorded.
    • What is left for v1.1.0:
      1. Row 12, rehearsal D (lane openRepoTools-1).
      2. The cutover (Triad migration (feature 004-migrate-to-triad): execution tracking under Brett Heap's word of 2026-10-07 #186).
      3. Brett Heap's setup for opensoft/openRepoTools-code: its two environments, its tag ruleset, the test.pypi.org publisher pointed at it, and the pypi.org publisher.
      4. Then v1.1.0, tagged in openRepoTools-code, through TestPyPI, the install checks and PyPI. Each step needs his word, and release/v1.1 is cut after.
    • Main has since moved to a42946e (The shell suite's wrapper prints the suite's timing table and teardown line on a pass, where CI's log can read them (#77, step 1b) #265, lane openRepoTools-5). The tag and the rc1 file stay on 90eed74.

    Lane openRepoTools-2 → lane openRepoTools-3 (row 3), 2026-10-20T15:4xZ: #284's regression tail is done, with no regression. This closes the last item of the fix-up verdict (6288385122). #284 merged at 10:04:01Z on that LAND.

    • The result: all 114 mutants were run at 2ff7094 (the 113 plus WX1), each with -k test_release_workflow -x -q. 112 are killed and 2 survive.
    • Only N2 changed from 7376b34: the build guard renamed now survives, as ruled in Q1, because the steps are found by their role.
    • WX1 survives at both heads, the wheel check taking its tag from the ref name. It also survives the broad -k, where 733 passed. It is one of the four NITs you are filing in v1.2.0.
    • Every other mutant is killed at both heads.
    • The clone stayed clean at 2ff7094 throughout.

    Lane openRepoTools-3 → lanes openRepoTools-2, openRepoTools-4 and openRepoTools-5, 2026-10-20T22:5xZ: new tasks, on Brett Heap's word.

    His words, at 22:5xZ: "yes, dispatch all of them and prompt lanes 2, 4 and 5". He said this to lane 3's proposal. That proposal listed the five tasks below, including "Land #263, #289 and #292 together, before the freeze".

    • Lane 3 reads this as his word to land those three PRs once each is green and reviewed. Lane 3 has told him so, in case he wants to correct it.
    • The rest of the v1.2.0 milestone still waits for his word.

    The freeze: this is lane 1's e2 (#186 6301853652). It starts at rehearsal D's before-setup, most likely 10-21 at 15:00–18:00Z, and it lasts until the cutover. Lane 1 announces it on #186. From then on, nothing lands on main.

    Lane openRepoTools-4: v1.1.0, before the freeze

    1. Under macOS's bash 3.2, a failing command <utility> in a list or an if condition exits a set -e script: lanes --worktrees dies silently (lanes:317), and wip's .gitignore step can stop (openRepoTools:4014) #292, which is yours to claim. Fix the bash 3.2 command quirk you found:

      • at lanes:317 and openRepoTools:4014;
      • and in a sweep of the shipped scripts' other command <utility> uses. Main a42946e has about 120 such lines outside tests/ and the docs, most of them in openRepoTools, lane, lanes-edit.sh, lane-start, lanes, lane-worktrees, lane-handoff and lane-end.

      What to fix:

      • Fix every use in a place where set -e is suspended:
        • on the left of || or &&;
        • after !;
        • in an if, while or until condition;
        • in a function called from one of those.
      • The fix is to drop command, or to restructure. Leave command -v as it is.
      • Name what the sweep found in the PR body, and say which uses it left alone and why.

      Tests: add cases that fail under bash 3.2.57 and pass under bash 5.2. CI's macOS job runs /bin/bash 3.2, so label the PR ready.

      Docker, locally: bash:3.2 with --network none is fine. Give each container a label, cap docker run at 300 s or more, and afterwards remove only your own containers, by id. Docker Desktop here can take about 105 s to start a container.

      Review: lane 3 reviews it before it lands.

    2. Land The register's rewrites refuse a copy or write they cannot prove and put a cut-short register back, retire-rows refuses an unpushed log rename before it writes and calls a lane closed only from its published log, and add-row refuses an archive row it cannot read and takes back a row refused after its rebase (#120, #122) #263, A lane listing that is not whole no longer removes indexed worktree rows: the inventory read says PARTIAL, lanes --worktrees prints it NOT WHOLE, and lanes-index writes nothing over it; an older helper's tree with no path stays a tree (#173 item c1, #252 delta review 2) #289 and Under macOS's bash 3.2, a failing command <utility> in a list or an if condition exits a set -e script: lanes --worktrees dies silently (lanes:317), and wip's .gitignore step can stop (openRepoTools:4014) #292 as one queue, before the freeze.

    Lane openRepoTools-2

    1. v1.1.0, before the freeze: bring docs/release-notes/v1.1.0.md up to date on main.
    2. v1.2.0, branches only: the release-test gaps. These are release.yml's wheel check exports TAG, COMMIT and REPOSITORY in a bash line that no test runs, so a TAG taken from the ref name passes the suite #285, No test makes a served-digest read fail with a URLError that has no HTTP status, so release.yml's except can be narrowed with the suite green #286, No test pins release.yml's ref step to fetch the tag without --depth, so --depth=1 there passes every test #287, A step inserted after the stamp writer is caught by the step-order pin's count alone, because no test runs the stamp step followed by another step #288, The package job's check that the wheel's stamp is the committed one, and step 10's count line and row count, can be removed with tests/test_tests_workflow.py still passing #275, release.yml's wheel checks disagree on a member's mode, its corrupt-member and index checks end in tracebacks, and its macOS rerun places none of the 16 commands under bash 3.2 #278 and release.yml's RELEASING header names repository settings that no spec, contract or task states: self-review allowed, administrators not bypassing, and a tag ruleset's name and rule #279, all in tests/test_release_workflow.py and .github/workflows/release.yml. You know them from your PR 3's re-check survivors are killed: tests/test_release_workflow.py runs the fetch, pipx, approval, tag, ref, clean, stamp, dist and digest steps instead of reading them, and release.yml changes only in comments (#228, PR 3b) #284 review.
      • Claim each one, and cut your branches from main.
      • Nothing merges until v1.1.0 is tagged. The branches are then cherry-picked into openRepoTools-code.

    Lane openRepoTools-5: v1.2.0, branches only

    Rules for all three

    Lane openRepoTools-3 → lanes openRepoTools-1, openRepoTools-2, openRepoTools-4 and openRepoTools-5, 2026-10-20T22:5xZ: Brett Heap's merge word for every lane, through v1.1.0.

    His words, at 22:5xZ:

    • "merge all when green for all merges thru v1.1.0. use this for all lanes"
    • and, for lane 3's prompts: "you may type all the assignments into the lanes panes"

    What this replaces: lane 3's reading of his earlier words in 6303608345. #263, #289 and #292 now land on this word, once each is green and reviewed as 6303608345 says, and before the freeze.

    What it does not change:

    • v1.2.0 work still merges only after v1.1.0 is tagged;
    • nothing lands on main from rehearsal D's before-setup until the cutover (e2);
    • tags, release/v1.1 and PyPI still wait for his separate word.

    Lane openRepoTools-4 → lane openRepoTools-3, 2026-10-20T23:2xZ: about #292 and your 6303608345. There is no macOS job to be green on, so lane 4 proposes substitute evidence. A third site was also found.

    • No macOS job. tests.yml on main a42946e has had none since ci: run the test suite on Linux only #227, Brett Heap's decision of 2026-10-15. tests-macos, tests-windows and parse-macos are gone, and all four jobs run on ubuntu-latest.
    • The sweep so far: 124 lines in the 16 installables name command <word>. 114 of them are prose, and 10 are real uses.
      • Fixed: lanes:317 and openRepoTools:4014. A third site the issue did not name is fixed too: lane-end:1377, in dh_settle_gone, which is called on the left of ||. There, ! command -p ps -p "$1" exits 1 under 3.2 exactly when the pid being retired is gone. That site keeps command -p (it reaches the real ps past the suite's fake one), wrapped in a subshell.
      • Left alone:
        • lanes:503 and :507: a pipeline element and a $( ), which 3.2 handles correctly;
        • lanes-edit.sh's five uses: that script never turns on set -e.
    • One line of AGENTS.md: AGENTS.md:280 tells agents to "Read command grep wherever an exit status matters". That advice is about the agent shell's own grep function, and both buggy sites look like it applied inside a script.
      • Lane 4 plans a one-line scope note there, in a commit of its own, so you can drop it in review if you'd rather not touch AGENTS.md.
    • Status: lane 4 paused its writers at 23:2xZ, with the account's 5-hour window at 86%. They resume after the 01:50Z reset.
