 Ihar Hrachyshka | * from nixpkgs manual: "A more formal definition of the platform support tiers is provided in RFC046, but has not been fully implemented yet."
wonder if this should be "fully implemented" for the sake better standing of aarch64-darwin in the eyes of packagers that don't care; and what it would take to make the official tier list a reality (the one in RFC046 is wildly out of date)
ah should have just searched through PRs!.. I guess it's: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/401821

not sure what happened there – I suspect manually editing the title of a squash merge probably | 01:53:22 |
| Winter | you’d just think squash merges would properly set committer nonetheless | 01:53:56 |

 Matt Sturgeon | In Nixvim we've been using @glepage:matrix.org's PAT for pushing lockfile update PRs, because you need to push as a "real" user to trigger CI.
This gets a bit confusing sometimes, so we'd like to push those PRs as @nix-infra-bot instead. Would it be possible to add a Personal Access Token to our repo secrets, so we can have our CI use that token instead?
It would need write access to Nixvim, and ideally the secret would be named something like INFRA_BOT_TOKEN. | 22:31:09 |
 danth | FYI you can also install a GitHub app on the repo and use `actions/create-github-app-token` | 23:12:58 |

| Matt Sturgeon | I'm unfamiliar, would that create a token for doing things as the "app"?
I feel like that'd count as doing things "as a bot" and therefore still wouldn't trigger on:push workflows.
If it does trigger workflows on PRs pushed to by this app token, then that may be neater.
Is this what you do in Stylix for updating your lockfile? | 23:17:33 |
| danth | Yeah, it can trigger workflows like normal, and everything it does shows up as the bot user (example here.It's also a bit more secure since you can fine tune permissions on the app and the generated tokens only last for 1 hour | 23:27:18 |

| 23:27:26 |
| Matt Sturgeon | Ah thanks. That definitely looks like a better approach.
I also see it listed as one of the workarounds here: https://github.com/peter-evans/create-pull-request/blob/main/docs/concepts-guidelines.md#triggering-further-workflow-runs
I'll try to find time to look into it with @glepage:matrix.org, as I don't have the right permissions for setting up apps or secrets myself. | 23:32:39 |

 zowoq | I can set up a nix-community owned github app for this if you want, a few other repos are already using their own app with create-github-app-token. | 03:17:15 |
| Matt Sturgeon | Thanks, that'd be great 😃 | 03:20:59 |
| zowoq | Done. It has permissions for PRs, app id and key are set in the repo secrets and variables. | 03:48:30 |
