This is a maintenance release that lays the ground for the future user-facing improvements. It is a major version bump because of some backward-incompatible changes, see below:
- Bump the minimal GitLab version to 14.4 (released in Oct 2021) (as it contains the required API rename),
- Bump the minimal required Python version to 3.7 (as 3.6 is EOL since Dec 2021),
- Update many dependencies that have required Python >= 3.7,
- Drop the Debian-based Docker image,
- Drop support for a lot of deprecated configuration syntax that the app has warned about:
- branch protection - no more
developers_can_push,developers_can_merge, usepush_access_level,merge_access_leveletc. instead, - group members - no more
group_shared_with,enforce_group_members,group_access_level, usegroup_members,group_members.enforce,group_accessinstead, - services/integrations - no more
recreate,
- branch protection - no more
- Follow the renames in GitLab and rename some configuration sections:
services->integrations,secret_variables->variables,group_secret_variables->group_variables,
- (Applies only to the users of this app as library) Rename some API methods, remove deprecated ones,
protect_branch()is now the method using the new API, the method using the old one has been removed,branch_code_owner_approval_required()->set_branch_code_owner_approval_required().delete_legacy_approvers()has been removed,- all the methods with
service(s)/secret_variable(s)/group_secret_variable(s)in their names have been renamed to containintegration(s)/variable(s)/group_variables(s).
