Major Changes
Triagebot helps with automated processing of Major Change Proposals.
Usage
The process starts when the appropriate label is set on an issue.
For example, the rust-lang/compiler-team repo has a major change template which will automatically set the major-change label.
Triagebot will detect this and create a new Zulip topic for hosting discussion, and post a comment to the issue with a link to Zulip stream.
If a team member writes a comment on the GitHub issue with @rustbot second (or @rustbot seconded), then triagebot will set the appropriate label, and post a comment to Zulip.
If a team member adds the major-change-accepted label, then triagebot will post a comment to Zulip to let people know that it has been accepted.
Configuration
This feature is enabled by the [major-change] table in triagebot.toml:
[major-change]
# Issues that have this label will start the MCP process.
# Defaults to "major-change".
enabling_label = "major-change"
# Label to apply once an MCP is seconded.
second_label = "final-comment-period"
# Label to apply when an MCP is created.
# Typically this is used to track what needs to be discussed at a meeting.
meeting_label = "to-announce"
# When this label is added to an issue, that triggers acceptance of the proposal
# which sends an update to Zulip.
# Defaults to "major-change-accepted".
accept_label = "major-change-accepted"
# Optional extra text that is included in the GitHub comment when the issue is opened.
open_extra_text = "cc @rust-lang/compiler @rust-lang/compiler-contributors"
# The Zulip stream to automatically create topics about MCPs in
# Can be found by looking for the first number in URLs, e.g.
# https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/131828-t-compiler
zulip_stream = 233931
# An Zulip group or username to tag in the Zulip message when a
# proposal has been seconded.
zulip_ping = "T-compiler"
