Caretaker

Caretaker is responsible for merging PRs into the individual branches and internally at Google.

Responsibilities

  • Draining the queue of PRs ready to be merged. (PRs with action: merge label)
  • Assigning new issues to individual component authors.

Merging the PR

A PR needs to have action: merge and target: * labels to be considered ready to merge. Merging is performed by running ng-dev pr merge with a PR number to merge.

The tooling automatically verifies the given PR is ready for merge. If the PR passes the tests, the tool will automatically merge it based on the applied target label.

To merge a PR run:

$ yarn ng-dev pr merge <pr number>

Recovering from failed merge-pr due to conflicts

The ng-dev pr merge tool will automatically restore to the previous git state when a merge fails.
