Description

Opentracing was deprecated even when we added opentelemetry. We should get rid of it, but we haven't been able to make breaking changes. We're doing v4 now! Goodbye, opentracing 🫡

Changes

Remove the opentracing tracing backend. Only opentelemetry will be a permitted tracing backend now.

Testing

  • Tests have run locally (with go test ./...). Buildkite employees may check this if the pipeline has run automatically.
  • Code is formatted (with go tool gofumpt -extra -w .)
