Description

Announcement

We will change the way default gems are synchronized to ruby/ruby.

  • Before: Push to gem repository → webhook.cgi → git.ruby-lang.org pushes to ruby/ruby
  • After: Push to gem repository → GitHub Actions on gem repository → GitHub Actions on ruby/ruby pushes to ruby/ruby

Background

  • The apache2 server for https://git.ruby-lang.org has been taken down because it has been under DDoS attacks and we couldn't handle it. As a result, its webhook.cgi is no longer online.
  • It was hard for default gem maintainers to notice sync failures, look at their logs, and fix them.
    • Moving the implementation to GitHub Actions would make them more visible and accessible for the maintainers.

Operations

To set up sync from ruby/xxx to ruby/ruby, you need to do the following operations:

  1. [Optional] Remove https://git.ruby-lang.org/webhook from Settings > Webhooks if it's currently set.
  2. On Settings > Secrets and variables > Actions > Organization secrets, make sure the repository has access to RUBY_SYNC_DEFAULT_GEMS_PRIVATE_KEY
    • Consult @hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA) if it's not visible for the repository. "ruby-sync-default-gems GitHub App Private Key" is managed under the "Ruby core team" 1Password vault.
  3. Add this GitHub Actions workflow .github/workflows/sync-ruby.yml to the repository.
    • Change on.push.branches from master to main if the default branch is main.
