PRs can sometimes take a long time to merge #293

In the time it took me to write that, the merge commit for #278 got reset again 6a8e6b4 and pushed the voting window back, for no apparent reason:

@amoffat Tell me If I can help in any way ^_^ P.P.S Is it possible that it's because I'm in CET(GMT+2 right now)? |
@phil-r thank you! I think you are fine, this is probably an issue with github :) I've reached out to them to see if they know what's going on. If I don't hear from them soon, I'll revert the changes that introduced this problem. Then your stuff should merge in a more timely manner |
I know why the temp |
Something I noticed with the following two pull requests, which were opened 8 and 10 hours ago respectively #280 #278, but still hadn't merged. Both PRs have a single commit, but Chaos was saying their voting window ended at the same time, despite the PRs being opened hours apart.
Digging into the
merge_commit_sha
630d9e5 (which we use for "reliable" branch push times) for #278:And comparing to #278's single commit ae12b70:
It looks like the Github may sometimes have a significant delay between a push to a PR and the
merge_commit_sha
existing. In this case, it was over 7 hours(!) I did the same comparison for #280, and themerge_commit_sha
f0fd79b has the exact same timestamp as the one from #278, 630d9e5. This would suggest that maybe Github's merge commit job runner had died, restarted hours later, and crunched through the pending merge test jobs.So maybe this isn't something to worry about yet, but it may be important to keep in mind if people wonder why their PRs are taking so long
