github-release-tools

A collection of scripts and tools for semi-automating git- and GitHub-based release processes.

Installation

npm install -g @mapbox/github-release-tools

Configuration

Create a personal Github access token and set the value to the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable.

Optionally add a GITHUB_BASE_URL in the form of https://api.<domain>.com/ for use with hosted Github Enterprise. If omitted, it will default to the standard octokit url, and work against github.com api.

backport

backport <change> <branch>

Backports change(s) in a PR to a release branch and opens a pull request for
review.

<change> can be one of the following:

* A commit hash
* The URL to a pull request
* The ID of a pull request, preceded by a hash sign, e.g. #893

<branch> is the name of a release branch, e.g. `release-boba`.

backport will do the following:

1. In the case where <change> is a commit hash, locate the PR in which the
change originated.
2. Create a branch named cherry-pick-<pr>, where <pr> is the ID of the
originating PR.
3. Cherry pick each commit in the originating PR onto this branch, with an
opportunity to resolve conflicts should they arise.
4. Open a PR requesting a merge of cherry-pick-<pr> to <branch>, with a
description that notes the originating PR and reproduces its description.
5. Request a review from the reviewer(s) of the original PR.
