CI and LLM Review on Fedora Forge with Forgejo Actions (www.happyassassin.net)

The Fedora quality team has successfully migrated its repositories from Pagure to a new Forgejo-based Fedora Forge, introducing continuous integration (CI) capabilities through Forgejo Actions. This system mirrors GitHub Actions in functionality but has some limitations, such as fewer shared actions and a different environment setup. Users can now define workflows in their project repository for tasks like building and testing Python projects using containers, though they may encounter challenges with runner availability and environment discrepancies, particularly since the default environment is set to Debian Bookworm. Notably, the integration of automated large language model (LLM) code review enhances the contribution process. Developers can trigger AI-driven reviews on pull requests by adding a specific label, helping automate feedback while controlling costs associated with LLM usage. Currently, this feature runs on a designated AI API, with options for various providers like Gemini or OpenAI. However, users should be cautious, as there are limitations in permissions and potential issues with code security during the review process. This development represents a significant step for the AI/ML community, emphasizing collaboration and automation in software development workflows within open-source environments.
