Question

don't fail the pipeline when updating project dependencies

Opened this issue 7 years ago · 2 comments

we noticed today that if we get an error in the pipeline when updating downstream projects the entire build fails. Perhaps we dont want to do this and catch the error, log it and continue to the next project?

The error in this case was no permissions to create the updateVersion branch in the downstream project.

This sound reasonable to me. It's important that people would get a notification about this particular failed step.

Maybe we could fail the build still at the end to raise awareness of the problem ? (e.g. by collection errors until the end of the pipeline ?)

Yeah that sounds like a good idea to me.
