What Enabling Code Scanning Means:

  • The 'Security' tab will display more code scanning analysis results (e.g., for the default branch).
  • Depending on your configuration and choice of analysis tool, future pull requests will be annotated with code scanning analysis results.
  • You will be able to see the analysis results for the pull request's branch on this overview once the scans have completed and the checks have passed.

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The release guide was rewritten to add Crowdin verification, update versioning commands, clarify release approvals and publishing, document translation troubleshooting, and replace the previous deployment flow with a private deployment repository pull request.

Changes

Release Documentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Release preparation and translation workflow
docs/release.md
The guide adds Crowdin checks, updated package versioning commands, release approval and publishing steps, Docker Hub verification, and translation troubleshooting instructions.
Deployment repository process
docs/release.md
Deployment now requires a pull request in a private deployment repository to update backend and frontend image tags and environment variables.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to a0f70

The release documentation may render key instructions incorrectly and makes the approval and merge sequence ambiguous. Correct the Markdown formatting and step numbering before relying on this guide for releases.

Remove the unmatched backtick.

Line 12 leaves a stray backtick after different. This can corrupt the Markdown rendering of the Helm instruction. Change the text to for different environments:. (spec.commonmark.org)

Proposed fix
-    - for Helm, update the Docker image tag in the files located at `src/helm/env.d` for different`

Put the Changelog fences on standalone lines.

Line 35 appends the closing fence after content, so it is not a closing fence. The next standalone fence is Line 41. As a result, the commit procedure and example are rendered inside the Changelog code block. (spec.commonmark.org)

Proposed fix

Use unique numbers for the release steps.

Line 45 and Line 46 are both numbered 8. This makes the approval and merge sequence ambiguous. Make the re-sign action an unnumbered note, or renumber Line 46 and all following steps.

Proposed fix
-8.  you may have to re-sign the release branch
-8.  Wait for an approval from your peers.
-9.  Merge your pull or merge request.
+8.  If required, re-sign the release branch.
+9.  Wait for an approval from your peers.
+10. Merge your pull or merge request.

Increment the remaining step numbers accordingly.
