Fix release-on-version-bump workflow to allow re-running after a part… - #951
Conversation
WalkthroughThe release workflow now handles existing tags and GitHub releases independently. It skips duplicate release publication, preserves failures for conflicting tags or lookup errors, and re-fires the COPR webhook on every retry. ChangesRelease retry handling
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The release workflow can publish a tag before security scans pass, allowing potentially vulnerable code to be released without a security gate. Merge should wait until the scans are added or this risk is explicitly accepted. Suggested reviewers: Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

116-117: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🔵 TrivialConfirm that repeated COPR requests are safe.
A retry after a successful POST sends the same tag payload again. If COPR does not deduplicate builds by tag, the workflow can queue duplicate builds. Verify endpoint deduplication or add a stable idempotency mechanism before relying on unconditional retries.

In @.github/workflows/release-on-version-bump.yaml:
- Around line 13-17: Update the retry documentation in the workflow comments to
state that tag creation and release publication have independent skip checks,
while the COPR trigger has no skip condition and always re-runs. Remove any
claim that COPR has its own skip condition.
- Around line 60-61: Update the existing-tag comparison in the release workflow
to dereference annotated tags before comparing the result with git rev-parse
HEAD. Use the dereferenced refs/tags/${tag}^{} lookup, or otherwise resolve the
tag object to its commit, while preserving the current behavior for tags that
already point to HEAD.
- Around line 68-73: Update the tag lookup step before “Create and push tag” to
inspect git ls-remote --exit-code’s status: set tag_exists=false only for status
2, and fail the step for every other non-zero status; preserve the existing
successful lookup output and tag creation condition.
- Around line 84-98: Update the “Check for existing release” step around the
release lookup to distinguish a confirmed 404 from authentication, rate-limit,
network, and other errors, failing the job for all non-404 failures instead of
treating them as absence. When a release exists, validate that it is complete
and has the required assets before setting exists=true, or implement
deterministic draft reuse that preserves this completeness guarantee.

Run SAST and SCA before publishing the tag.
This job has no SAST or SCA step. Line 92 can publish a release tag before any security gate runs. Add pinned SAST and SCA steps before this step. Fail the job when either scan fails.
As per path instructions, “SAST/SCA steps in pipeline” applies to .github/workflows/**/*.

[medium] error-handling
The release-existence check uses grep -qi 'release not found' to distinguish a missing release from other gh release view failures. This relies on matching the GitHub CLI's error message text, which is not a contractual API surface. If a future gh version changes the wording, the grep will miss and the step will fail the job. Failing is the safe direction (no silent re-release), but it would block releases until the pattern is updated.
Suggested fix: Add a comment documenting the fragility. The current narrow pattern is preferable to a wider 'not found' match, which could false-positive on 'repository not found' errors.
