CI tooling and hacks to improve CI

Generate openshift/release config

Add configuration for your repository in config/<file.yaml>
- If you're adding a new file in config/ directory, add the new file to the make generate-ci command
Run make generate-ci ARGS=--remote=<your_remote>
- For example, make generate-ci ARGS=--remote=git@github.com:pierDipi/release.git
- If you are using podman, make sure to have export CONTAINER_ENGINE=podman set
Create a PR to https://github.com/openshift/release (to be automated)

To generate openshift/release config for a single repository, run the specific task in the Makefile or run individual commands in the Makefile, such as:

go run github.com/openshift-knative/hack/cmd/prowgen --config config/eventing-hyperfoil-benchmark.yaml --remote <your_remote>
# go run github.com/openshift-knative/hack/cmd/prowgen --config config/eventing-hyperfoil-benchmark.yaml --remote git@github.com:aliok/release.git

This generation works this way:

openshift/relase is cloned
The target repository is cloned
The makefile of the target repository is parsed to find the make targets that match the regex in the config/<file.yaml> files
For any matches, 2 tests are generated.
- One for the presubmit (that runs on PRs on the target repository)
- One for the periodics (that runs regularly)
There are also CI job config generated, which use the tests above.
If the matching regex is specified in onDemand field, then the presubmit is marked as optional (always_run: false).

Limitations:

It is not currently possible to disable periodics per job

Run unit tests

make unit-tests

Updating OpenShift versions

CI configs use specific OpenShift versions. To change the version, you need to update the YAML files in the config/ directory.

When a new OpenShift version is released, wait until the cluster pool for OpenShift CI is available in https://docs.ci.openshift.org/docs/how-tos/cluster-claim/#existing-cluster-pools.

Troubleshooting

Git not configured to use GPG signing

error: gpg failed to sign the data
fatal: failed to write commit object

You need to configure GPG signing in your git config. See https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/managing-commit-signature-verification/telling-git-about-your-signing-key#telling-git-about-your-ssh-key.

If you see this error, you need to update your Git to version 2.34 or later.

error: unsupported value for gpg.format: ssh
fatal: bad config variable 'gpg.format' in file '/Users/<you>/.gitconfig'
