Automating maintainers work: The Prototype
summary
A collection of small shell tools ties together GitHub, mock, Copr, Koji and Bugzilla to detect new RubyGems, create source commits and PRs, run Copr and mock builds, store lockfiles and even auto-merge when LGTM and close the tracking bug by updating changelogs. It runs across hundreds of Fedora rubygem packages, handles forking and bootstrapping dependency chains, reports failures that need manual conflict resolution, and is described as a minimal prototype for automating updates for all Fedora rubygems.
