Description
Hey Infra,
affected repo: https://github.com/apache/couchdb-fauxton
I enabled branch protection for the "main" branch and as a pre-condition before merging, there should be a successful run of a gh workflow. So I set the following in the `.asf.yaml`.
```
protected_branches:
main:
required_status_checks:
strict: true
# contexts are the names of checks that must pass.
contexts:
- CI
```
`CI` is the name of the workflow.
Now, the workflow is a required step before merge, the jobs in the workflow run successful, but it hangs on the "status" for the workflow, see PR https://github.com/apache/couchdb-fauxton/pull/1440
I'm also now unable to update this PR with the following git error message (but maybe thats expected in the situation):
```
~/Documents/Developer/CouchDB/couchdb-fauxton git:[main]
git push -f

To github.com:apache/couchdb-fauxton.git
! [remote rejected] main -> main (protected branch hook declined)
error: failed to push some refs to 'github.com:apache/couchdb-fauxton.git'
```
Short discussion at Slack: https://the-asf.slack.com/archives/CBX4TSBQ8/p1716371352538599
At this stage, I would need the help from Infra.
In my mind I want to do the following:
- protect "main" branch (done)
- Run GH workflow for new and/or updated PR's
- need at least one approval (done)
- only allow the merge, if the GH workflow was successful (all jobs inside) - the gh workflow should "report" the status back to Github
How do I set the "contexts" key correctly in the `.asf.yaml` file?
Best, Ronny
