@piegames:matrix.org@piegames:matrix.orgWhy so complicated? GitHub actions already always run on the merged code (IIRC), so simply pin the version in the repo and you're done?17:40:54
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil piegames: Because the CI check might be outdated 17:41:32
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilCI check runs successfully, master branch updates with stricter checks, PR gets merged, master is broken17:41:50
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilWith a strategy as described, you can kind of guarantee that any new PRs won't break master if merged17:43:29
@piegames:matrix.org@piegames:matrix.orgAh. Yeah, merge bot. Or have a bot that forces a rebase after any CI changes17:43:46
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilHard to have a good definition for CI changes though. The entire repo can influence CI17:44:41

Also, this is not the problem desribed in your issue, as far as I read it
17:45:11
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilBut maybe one could tag commits with "if this gets merged, the CI checks for all PR's need to be re-triggered"17:45:31

CI is a derivation and if it changes? ^^

True, it's applicable in the same way though
17:45:57
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilHmm let me see if it's possible to somehow re-trigger checks17:47:07
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilThough, poor ofborg could just die from that..17:47:17
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilOkay maybe we could be very specific with it. Only re-trigger CI for PR's that touch all-packages.nix17:47:59
@piegames:matrix.org@piegames:matrix.orgHow about making stricter checks soft-fail for a while at first instead?17:48:52
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilThat's kind of what https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/256788 is about17:49:30
@piegames:matrix.org@piegames:matrix.orgI must admit that I am completely lost in the issue text, after reading it twice17:51:02
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilYeah sorry I admit it's really hard to read..17:51:15
