- The current initial triage does not include PRs. This includes them by removing the issue filter
- The merge assistance label is often applied to PRs that do not have
status=success. Caretaker should handle these as well
PR Close#39257
Issue triage _currently_ requires a component to be set and one of the following to be true for an issue to be
considered triaged:
* Marked as a bug _and_ has a severity _and_ has a frequency
* Mark as a feature
* Marked as a refactor
* Marked as a discussion
* Marked as "confusing"
* Marked as "use-case"
This PR changes the rules so that (in addition to the component), triage
requires:
* A priority label (P0 through P5)
* Marked as a feature
* Marked as a discussion
Triage may also apply additional, optional info labels to issues.
[This document outlines the new priority
scheme](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mN2zWsr1pxChSTHC7UkOgl4PhhuoFONtG_zcMWeqLwA/preview).
While this PR is focused on issue triage and not PR triage, I have
changed the PR section triage to remove reference to the "effort: *" and
"risk: *" labels. Looking through recent PRs, Kapunahele is the only
person applying these, so it's clear that this bit is no longer widely
practiced.
This is just one step in the always-ongoing process of managing GitHub
labels. More adjustments will come over time. In writing this PR, I have
already unearthed a few more areas that can be polished in follow-ups.
