ci(release-please): fix footer not appearing on release PRs - #1902
Merged
Conversation
Release-please defaults `separatePullRequests` to `true` for single-package configs, which skips the Merge plugin that applies the configured `pull-request-footer`. Setting `separate-pull-requests` to `false` explicitly forces the Merge plugin to run. See: https://github.com/googleapis/release-please/issues (upstream bug) Signed-off-by: Gregor Zeitlinger <gregor.zeitlinger@grafana.com>

## Summary - `pull-request-footer` was not being applied to release PRs because release-please defaults `separatePullRequests` to `true` for single-package configs, which skips the Merge plugin responsible for applying the footer - Setting `separate-pull-requests: false` forces the Merge plugin to run ## Context - Same workaround applied to prometheus/client_java in prometheus/client_java#1902 ## Test plan - [ ] After merging, verify the next release PR includes the footer Signed-off-by: Gregor Zeitlinger <gregor.zeitlinger@grafana.com>
