breakbot-forker

A simple script that forks a GitHub repository and its pull requests to test BreakBot.

Dependencies

• Git
• GitHub CLI

The script requires that GitHub CLI has write access to the organization the fork should be pushed to. See gh auth login.

Example

To fork google/guava and its ten most recent pull requests on the GitHub organization breakbot-test:

breakbot-forker -o google -r guava -t breakbot-test -b guava.yml -l 10

The guava.yml file gives a basic configuration for building the library and testing a handful of clients:

build:
  pom: guava/pom.xml
  jar: guava/target/guava-HEAD-jre-SNAPSHOT.jar
clients:
  - repository: sofastack/sofa-boot
  - repository: salesforce/zsync4j
  - repository: mspnp/ha-nva
  - repository: wujun728/jun_java_plugin
  - repository: data-integrations/salesforce
  - repository: leonchen83/redis-rdb-cli
  - repository: xaecbd/KCenter

Usage

Forks a repository, commits a BreakBot configuration file, and copies its pull requests.
