marge failures
Since uprevving marge-bot this morning, she has flaked out a few times and failed to handle an MR. She says Unexpected exception in bot while handling this MR. which you can see from her activity:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/users/marge-bot/activity
For example, this time she flaked out but behaved properly after she was reassigned again: mesa/mesa!32471 (merged)
But this time she didn't and the reassignment didn't help: mesa/mesa!32398 (merged)
The problem happens before marge pushes commits to the developer's source branch, but exactly where the problem is I can't exactly tell without seeing her logs. Since the issue is intermittent maybe it is a gitlab api failure when fetching approvals or status, but I am just guessing and haven't been able to reproduce the problem.
Since uprevving has caused marge to regress somewhat, I am wondering if we should revert until I can find the problem and fix it upstream. Or since it's not a total failure of marge, should we persist in monitoring the unexpected failures and reassigning the MRs until a fix is found?
