Bumps an existing Python dependency in getsentry/sentry through the repository's self-serve GitHub Actions workflow. Use when asked to update, upgrade, or bump a Python package version in Sentry. Does not apply to new dependencies, JavaScript packages, or informational questions about dependency management.
# Bump a Sentry Python Dependency For an existing Python dependency, prefer `.github/workflows/bump-version.yml` over editing `pyproject.toml` and `uv.lock` locally. The workflow creates a non-draft PR when it produces a diff; it does not approve or merge the PR. Do not use this workflow for new dependencies, JavaScript packages, other repositories, or informational questions. ## Preflight without side effects Before asking for confirmation: 1. Confirm the package is in `[project].dependencies` or the `dev` dependency group in `pyproject.toml`. 2. Resolve the exact target version. If the user says `latest`, determine the intended stable version first. 3. Check for an existing PR from `bot/bump-version/<package>/<version>`. Reuse and report it instead of dispatching a duplicate. ## Require confirmation Dispatching the workflow is an external side effect: it starts a GitHub Actions job and normally opens a PR. A request such as "bump package X" is not by itself explicit approval for those effects. Unless the user already said to run the workflow or open the PR, ask and wait: > This will dispatch Sentry's `bump-version` workflow and open a PR if it > produces a change. Would you like me to run it? Do not treat approval for this dispatch as approval to modify `getsentry/pypi`, approve the PR, enable auto-merge, or merge it. ## Dispatch and report After approval, run: ```bash gh workflow run bump-version.yml \ --repo getsentry/sentry \ --field package=<package> \ --field version=<version> ``` Omit `pr_options` unless the user explicitly requested it. Use the run URL/ID returned by `gh workflow run` to monitor that exact run: ```bash gh run watch <run-id> --repo getsentry/sentry --exit-status ``` GitHub can occasionally return no run details. Only then fall back to `gh run list`, filtered by this workflow, `workflow_dispatch`, the authenticated user, and the dispatch time. If the run succeeds, find the PR by its bot branch. Verify that changed files are limited to `pyproject.toml` and `uv.lock` and that the dependency changes are expected, then report the run URL, PR URL, current CI state, and review state. Do not wait indefinitely for human review. Never describe the dependency as landed until the PR is merged. If the run succeeds without a PR, inspect its log. No diff usually means the repository already satisfies the requested version. ## Handle failures narrowly ```bash gh run view <run-id> --repo getsentry/sentry --log-failed ``` The workflow retries resolver failures for roughly 20 minutes. After it fails, distinguish a genuinely missing internal-PyPI release from a dependency conflict. A mirror PR will not fix an incompatible dependency set. Changing `getsentry/pypi` is a separate external side effect. Explain why it is needed and get separate explicit approval before making that cross-repository change.
