`only-new-issues: true` option seems broken since v6.3.0 and v6.3.1 releases #1161

qdm12 · 2025-02-10T13:41:01Z

Welcome

Yes, I understand that the GitHub action repository is not the repository of golangci-lint itself.
Yes, I've searched similar issues on GitHub and didn't find any.
Yes, I've included all information below (version, config, etc).

Description of the problem

We use the action pinned as @v6 and with the option only-new-issues: true (full configuration)
Since 3 days ago (2025-02-07) it seems the option only-new-issues: true has no effect only on pushes, given files not changed in the commit pushed (squashed and merged) are being linted.

This can be seen in our commits CI reports of 2025-02-07 in our default branch: commit history

In particular, the last commit only modifies/adds the following files:

core/rawdb/database.go
core/rawdb/database.libevm.go
core/rawdb/database.libevm_test.go

But the action lints for example file libevm/pseudo/rlp_test.go (logs line) which is NOT part of that commit.

And the commit before that one works as expected, however.

This might correlate with the v6.3.0 release.

## Why this should be merged Allows for `ava-labs/coreth` equivalent modifications of `rawdb.InspectDatabase()` through external logic injection. ## How this works Variadic options to: 1. Record a database statistic; 2. Mark a database statistic as metadata; 3.

Hello,

No changes have been made to this option since v6.2.0.

The changes are about documentation, comments, and renaming.

v6.3.0...v6.3.1
v6.2.0...v6.3.0

There are quite a few dependabot pull requests, could it be related?

We did not change anything in our CI on last Friday where this problem started happening, and the CI will just trigger on unmodified file paths on pushes.
This is most likely an issue with this action, given it handles the only-new-issues option. Maybe try to reproduce it on your side just to be sure? Otherwise, would you have any hint on why that would happen? Thank you!

Ok I think I found the problem.

ldez · 2025-02-10T14:46:32Z

@qdm12 I created a new tag, you can update your CI if you want.

a-hilaly · 2025-02-13T02:33:11Z

@ldez we're still running into the same issue (for PRs created today) - is there anything we're doing wrong in https://github.com/kro-run/kro/blob/main/.github/workflows/golangci-lint.yaml#L1-L28 ?

ldez · 2025-02-13T03:11:05Z

Today 🤔 in which timezone? (for me it's 4 am) Can you add a reference to the job?

There is nothing wrong with the configuration of the GitHub Action.

You are using an old version of golangci-lint (v1.60), the current is v1.64, but it's not a major problem.

ldez · 2025-02-13T03:21:53Z

I checked the logs of some jobs: your problem is not related to this issue.

You only have typecheck errors, so your problem is inside your code.

Maybe a problem with your go.mod.

typecheck errors are not linting reports but "compilation" errors.

ldez · 2025-02-13T03:25:21Z

I think the change that happened "today" is the update of Go version (go1.23 -> go1.24) inside your CI.

So you must update the golangci-lint version to v1.64

kro-run/kro#302

a-hilaly · 2025-02-13T05:54:22Z

Thank you very much for debugging this @ldez ! the golangci-lint version definitely needed an update. Really appreciate the PR to bump it to v1.64!

Will take a look at our Go version pinning too - bit weird, AFAIK we're on 1.23/1.22 there. We'll sort that out separately.

Thanks again!
