Summary of Changes

Hello @blakeli0, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request prepares the repository for upcoming releases by setting up the necessary automation and safeguards for a new 2.66.x backport branch. It configures the release-please tool to manage releases for this branch and applies robust branch protection rules to maintain the integrity of the codebase, paving the way for the next main branch release, 2.67.0.

Highlights

  • Release Configuration: Configured the release-please workflow to support a new 2.66.x backport release branch, enabling automated release management for this specific version.
  • Branch Protection: Established comprehensive branch protection rules for the 2.66.x branch, including required approving reviews, code owner reviews, and a full suite of status checks to ensure code quality and stability.
Changelog
  • .github/release-please.yml
    • Added a new branch configuration for 2.66.x to enable java-backport releases.
    • Included specific settings for bumpMinorPreMajor, handleGHRelease, primaryBranch, manifest, and extraFiles within the 2.66.x branch configuration.
  • .github/sync-repo-settings.yaml
    • Introduced a new branch protection rule for the 2.66.x branch.
    • Configured the 2.66.x branch protection with isAdminEnforced: true, requiredApprovingReviewCount: 1, requiresCodeOwnerReviews: true, and requiresStrictStatusChecks: false.
    • Added a comprehensive list of required status checks for the 2.66.x branch, covering various build, GraalVM, library generation, and lint checks.

Code Review

This pull request configures a new release branch 2.66.x and prepares for the next main release. My review identifies a couple of areas for improvement. In the release-please.yml file, the new branch configuration contains redundant settings that are inherited from the top-level configuration. More importantly, it specifies primaryBranch: main, which is incorrect for a backport branch and should be removed. In sync-repo-settings.yaml, there's an inconsistency in the naming of required status checks which could be a typo. I've provided suggestions to address these points.

The configuration for the 2.66.x branch duplicates several settings from the top-level configuration (handleGHRelease, primaryBranch, manifest, and extraFiles). Branch-specific configurations in release-please inherit from the top-level settings, so this duplication is unnecessary and makes the file harder to maintain.

More critically, specifying primaryBranch: main for a backport branch is incorrect. It will cause release-please to look for commits on main to create a release for the 2.66.x branch, which is not the intended behavior for backports. Removing this key will make release-please correctly track commits on the 2.66.x branch itself.

I suggest removing the redundant keys to simplify the configuration and ensure correct behavior.

    bumpMinorPreMajor: true
    branch: 2.66.x

There's an inconsistency in the spacing for the build status check names. Other checks in this file, like build (11) and showcase (17), have a space before the parenthesis. The build(8) checks do not. While this might be intentional if the job names are exact, it's more likely a typo that could prevent these required status checks from being correctly enforced. For consistency and to avoid potential issues, I recommend adding a space.

      - build (8) except for gapic-generator-java
      - build (8) for gapic-generator-java
