• CIMonitor to consolidate workflow / pipeline monitoring logic for GH/GL across kettle-release and rake tasks, with handling for:
  • minutes exhausted
  • blocked
  • not configured
  • normal failures
  • pending
  • queued
  • running
  • success
• Ability to restart kettle-release from any failed step, so manual fixed can be applied.
  • Example (after intermittent failure of CI): bundle exec kettle-release start_step=10

Fixed

• added optional.gemfile.example, and handling for it in templating
• kettle-changelog: ensure a blank line at end of file
• add sleep(0.2) to ci:act to prevent race condition with stdout flushing
• kettle-release: ensure SKIP_GEM_SIGNING works as expected with values of “true” or “false”
  • ensure it doesn’t abort the process in CI

1.0.11 - 2025-08-28

• TAG: v1.0.11
• COVERAGE: 97.90% – 1959/2001 lines in 19 files
• BRANCH COVERAGE: 79.98% – 763/954 branches in 19 files
• 78.70% documented

Added

• Add more .example templates
  • .github/workflows/coverage.yml.example
  • .gitlab-ci.yml.example
  • Appraisals.example
• Kettle::Dev::InputAdapter: Input indirection layer for safe interactive prompts in tests; provides gets and readline; documented with YARD and typed with RBS.

  • extracts emoji grapheme from H1 to apply to gemspec’s summary and description
  • removes badges for unsupported rubies, and major version MRI row if all badges removed
• new exe script: kettle-changelog - transitions a changelog from unreleased to next release

Changed

• Make ‘git’ gem dependency optional; fall back to raw git commands when the gem is not present (rescues LoadError). See Kettle::Dev::GitAdapter.
• upgraded to stone_checksums v1.0.2
• exe scripts now print their name and version as they start up

Removed

• dependency on git gem
  • git gem is still supported if present and not bypassed by new ENV variable KETTLE_DEV_DISABLE_GIT_GEM
  • no longer a direct dependency

Fixed

• Upgrade stone_checksums for release compatibility with bundler v2.7+
  • Retains compatibility with older bundler < v2.7
• Ship all example templates with gem
• install task README preservation

1.0.10 - 2025-08-24

• TAG: v1.0.10
• COVERAGE: 97.68% – 1685/1725 lines in 17 files
• BRANCH COVERAGE: 77.54% – 618/797 branches in 17 files- 95.35% documented
• 77.00% documented

Added

• runs git add –all before git commit, to ensure all files are committed.

Changed

• This gem is now loaded via Ruby’s standard autoload feature.
• Bundler is always expected, and most things probably won’t work without it.
• exe/ scripts and rake tasks logic is all now moved into classes for testability, and is nearly fully covered by tests.
• New Kettle::Dev::GitAdapter class is an adapter pattern wrapper for git commands
• New Kettle::Dev::ExitAdapter class is an adapter pattern wrapper for Kernel.exit and Kernel.abort within this codebase.

Removed

• attempts to make exe/* scripts work without bundler. Bundler is required.

Fixed

• Kettle::Dev::ReleaseCLI#detect_version handles gems with multiple VERSION constants
• kettle:dev:template task was fixed to copy .example files with the destination filename lacking the .example extension, except for .env.local.example

1.0.9 - 2025-08-24

• TAG: v1.0.9
• COVERAGE: 100.00% – 130/130 lines in 7 files
• BRANCH COVERAGE: 96.00% – 48/50 branches in 7 files
• 95.35% documented

Added

• kettle-release: Add a sanity check for the latest released version of the gem being released, and display it during the confirmation with user that CHANGELOG.md and version.rb have been updated, so they can compare the value in version.rb with the value of the latest released version.
  • If the value in version.rb is less than the latest released version’s major or minor, then check for the latest released version that matches the major + minor of what is in version.rb.
  • This way a stable branch intended to release patch updates to older versions is able to work use the script.
• kettle-release: optional pre-push local CI run using act, controlled by env var K_RELEASE_LOCAL_CI (“true” to run, “ask” to prompt) and K_RELEASE_LOCAL_CI_WORKFLOW to choose a workflow; defaults to locked_deps.yml when present; on failure, soft-resets the release prep commit and aborts.
• template task: now copies certs/pboling.pem into the host project when available.

1.0.8 - 2025-08-24

• TAG: v1.0.8
• COVERAGE: 100.00% – 130/130 lines in 7 files
• BRANCH COVERAGE: 96.00% – 48/50 branches in 7 files
• 95.35% documented

Fixed

• Can’t add checksums to the gem package, because it changes the checksum (duh!)

1.0.7 - 2025-08-24

• TAG: v1.0.7
• COVERAGE: 100.00% – 130/130 lines in 7 files
• BRANCH COVERAGE: 96.00% – 48/50 branches in 7 files
• 95.35% documented

Fixed

• Reproducible builds, with consistent checksums, by not using SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH.
  • Since bundler v2.7.0 builds are reproducible by default.

1.0.6 - 2025-08-24

• TAG: v1.0.6
• COVERAGE: 100.00% – 130/130 lines in 7 files
• BRANCH COVERAGE: 96.00% – 48/50 branches in 7 files
• 95.35% documented

Fixed

• kettle-release: ensure SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is applied within the same shell for both build and release by prefixing the commands with the env var (e.g., SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH=$epoch bundle exec rake build and ... rake release); prevents losing the variable across shell boundaries and improves reproducible checksums.

1.0.5 - 2025-08-24

• TAG: v1.0.5
• COVERAGE: 100.00% – 130/130 lines in 7 files
• BRANCH COVERAGE: 96.00% – 48/50 branches in 7 files
• 95.35% documented

Fixed

• kettle-release: will run regardless of how it is invoked (i.e. works as binstub)

1.0.4 - 2025-08-24

• TAG: v1.0.4
• COVERAGE: 100.00% – 130/130 lines in 7 files
• BRANCH COVERAGE: 96.00% – 48/50 branches in 7 files
• 95.35% documented

Added

• kettle-release: checks all remotes for a GitHub remote and syncs origin/trunk with it; prompts to rebase or –no-ff merge when histories diverge; pushes to both origin and the GitHub remote on merge; uses the GitHub remote for GitHub Actions CI checks, and also checks GitLab CI when a GitLab remote and .gitlab-ci.yml are present.
• kettle-release: push logic improved — if a remote named all exists, push the current branch to it (assumed to cover multiple push URLs). Otherwise push the current branch to origin and to any GitHub, GitLab, and Codeberg remotes (whatever their names are).

Fixed

• kettle-release now validates SHA256 checksums of the built gem against the recorded checksums and aborts on mismatch; helps ensure reproducible artifacts (honoring SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH).
• kettle-release now enforces CI checks and aborts if CI cannot be verified; supports GitHub Actions and GitLab pipelines, including releases from trunk/main.
• kettle-release no longer requires bundler/setup, preventing silent exits when invoked from a dependent project; adds robust output flushing.

1.0.3 - 2025-08-24

  • This may move to its own gem in the future.
