Clean up prometheus charts issues and PRs in stable repo

[scottrigby]

After #11 and #28

Note we're already holding PRs in stable (#13)

Issue options:

1. Close them all with a note to re-open if relevant in the new location (easiest on us, maybe not as nice for end users)
2. Automate this for users by transferring the issues
   1. temporarily transfer repo to the helm org (because you can only move between repos within the same org)
   2. move issues from helm/charts to helm/prometheus-helm-charts
   3. immediately transfer repo from helm/prometheus-helm-charts to prometheus-community/helm-charts

Since the repo has already been transferred we can only do option 1 above.

PR options:

AFAIK there's no nice way for us to automate transferring open PRs from one repo to another and still allow the original PR author to own the PR. So I think our best option is to close open PRs in helm/charts with a friendly note on how they can do re-open the PR themselves (1. add new remote locally, 2. open PR from the same branch the initially did).

Do we have an ETA for this? I'm still on vacation until 7. September. I try to not use the laptop and i'm only on mobile until then. Hopefully it's enough to check issues later.

[scottrigby]

Yes the person who needs to give final approval for #11 is on vacation until this coming week

[scottrigby]

#11 is finished. We just need to finish #28 and then we can do this.

I feel like doing the 2nd option is so tedious. Rather we can do one of the following.

• Following your options 1
• Ask the corresponding chart maintainers to take care of the issues and PRs in the helm/charts against their charts

[scottrigby]

@gkarthiks I agree, and we have already transferred the repo so we can only do option 1 now anyway 😄

I just updated the issue description.

[gkarthiks]

@scottrigby So I am going to take a stab on the helm/charts issue ( may be PR as well) and going to comment as following later today.

---

Hi `uname` the `stable/chart` chart has been deprecated effectively as per this PR `deprecation_PR_in_helm/charts` on Sep 5, 2020 and moved to https://github.com/prometheus-community/helm-charts.

Please close this Issue and re-open against the prometheus-community/helm-charts repo. Here's a friendly link for [new issue](https://github.com/prometheus-community/helm-charts/issues/new)

We hope to see you there. 👋

---

does this sounds good?

[scottrigby]

Sounds great 👍 if you get to it before each chart maintainer I'm sure they'd appreciate the extra help. Someone will have to them close those issues (I wouldn't rely on each user to do so) but that's a bit less work. Thanks!

@scottrigby @torstenwalter I have commented in the below linked issues under helm/charts so far. The left out issues in that repository are against prometheus-operator which we haven't completed yet.

helm/charts#951
helm/charts#23718
helm/charts#23674
helm/charts#23649
helm/charts#23582
helm/charts#23551
helm/charts#23388

helm/charts#23547
helm/charts#23518

helm/charts#23535

helm/charts#23711

Do we expect a time line and close those issues by ourself? Like say after 15 business days?

Also should we update this https://github.com/helm/charts/issues/21103 with the corresponding URLs and status as done ?

[scottrigby]

@gkarthiks Thanks! and yes either someone who is able (chart or repo maintainer, or the OP) can close those issues, or we can wait for stalebot to do it for us – or if not done by Nov 13th we will close all open issues when the that repo is no longer supported.

I will update https://github.com/helm/charts/issues/21103 as part of #28

[scottrigby]

OK, all PRs and issues related to stable prometheus charts are closed with a message pointing users here ✅
