Gitea Pull Request Backporter

Note This project has moved to https://github.com/GiteaBot/gitea-backporter.

This is a script that looks for pull requests in go-gitea/gitea that need to be backported to a release branch and if the backport can be automated, it will do so.

Behavior

First, the script will fetch Gitea's current development versions from GitHub's API.

The script will look for pull requests that have the label backport/v{gitea_version} but do not have the label backport/done. It will clone your fork of gitea. It will then attempt to cherry-pick the pull request merged commit into the release branch. If the cherry-pick is successful, it will push the branch to the remote and create a pull request with the labels from the original pull request.

Usage

Set the following environment variables:

BACKPORTER_GITHUB_TOKEN= # A GitHub personal access token with permissions to add labels to the go-gitea/gitea repo
BACKPORTER_GITEA_FORK= # The fork of go-gitea/gitea to push the backport branch to (e.g. yardenshoham/gitea)

Then run:

deno run --allow-net --allow-env --allow-run src/mod.ts
