The job wasn't capable of closing issues because of insufficient permissions.
This change also makes the job run only on the apache/polaris repo.

Do we really want to close stale issues? I believe some issues are reported by users who do not have capacity for in-depth code changes in Polaris and thus allow the issues to just be there for other to review and propose solutions. Closing all issues without review seems risky in that regard... Would just flagging them as "stale" be sufficient? 🤔

You get a "warning"/"heads up" comment first, before the issue is being closed.

After the "heads up" you have two options:

  • Comment on the issue, and the "grace time" starts from 0.
  • Remove the "Stale" label and the issue won't be closed.

This is IMO better than having untackled issues lingering around forever?

That process has merit, I do not question that, and I'm ok with that if that's what the community agrees on.

My point is slightly different, though: if the original issue reporter disengages from the project and does not comment after the issue is flagged as stale, it does not mean that the issue is no longer relevant. Closing such issues automatically, might not be ideal.

While the practice of automatically closing issues is debatable, the immediate goal here is to re-enable this feature, as it was clearly intended to be operational from the start of Polaris but was non-functional due to a misconfiguration.

I suggest merging this change to correct the misconfiguration. We should then move the broader discussion about the practice itself to the ML, rather than silently relying on a misconfiguration to stop the feature from working as intended.

WDYT?

Fair enough 👍

* Releasey: adjust workflwo for Apache org level secrets (apache#3647)

See reference [INFRA-27430](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-27430), requiring us to use `DOCKERHUB_USER` + `DOCKERHUB_TOKEN` instead of `DOCKERHUB_USERNAME` + `DOCKERHUB_TOKEN`.

* Guides: fix setup scripts to yield correct exit code (apache#3612)

The statements in the shell scripts for the setup services are often concatenated using `;`, which means that a previous' command exit code is _not_ propagated and the service, although it failed, is determined to be successful.

This change updates those scripts to use `&&` for the statement concatenation.

"Final" setup services (aka "polaris-setup") now have a final `sleep 120`. This is due to the behavior of `docker compose up --detach --wait`, which considers _any_ service (without dependants) that exits with exit code 0 as a failure, leading to that docker-compose command yielding an error code. That would break the guides testing code (apache#3553). That `sleep 120` in "polaris-setup" services does **not** cause a delay of the compose starting up - it is purely a "hack around" Docker Compose not having a notion of "setup services".

To avoid merge conflicts, this change also:
* updates affected `curl` invocations (as apache#3610)
* removes superfluous `restart: "no"`

* Add PolarisEventType int codes and remove unused before/after commit view/table values. (apache#3608)

This is a continuation of apache#3418 where we agreed we should remove associate enums values from Enum definition.

The code also adds a constructor to help not having to rely on ordinals() to to have enum codes.

I incremented enum code assignments by 100 based on categories. I am happy to take feedback here.

Does not change logic and removes only enums that are no longer used so behavior does not change.

* docs: Add quick guide for downstream builds (apache#3601)

* docs: Add quick guide for downstream builds

* IntegrationTestsHelper: fix extract & merge logic (apache#3650)

Both methods were flawed:

* `extractFromAnnotatedElements` wasn't properly delegating to the class if the method isn't annotated
* `mergeFromAnnotatedElements` wasn't properly prioritizing method properties over class properties.

* Community page: Yong Zheng - PPMC Member (apache#3653)

* chore(deps): update actions/checkout digest to de0fac2 (apache#3652)

* Use `quarkus.package.jar.type` (apache#3644)

Switch to `quarkus.package.jar.type` instead of the old `quarkus.package.type` build property as suggested by Quarkus build warning:

```
2026-02-03T00:26:05.672955189Z WorkerExecutor Queue WARN Configuration property 'quarkus.package.type' has been deprecated and replaced by: [quarkus.package.jar.enabled, quarkus.package.jar.type, quarkus.native.enabled, quarkus.native.sources-only]
```

* Site: Add blog post for Floe Polaris Integration (apache#3645)

* "Stale" job: restrict executions and adjust issue permissions (apache#3636)

* Add copyright on website (apache#3659)

* Sanitize principal names in AWS STS role session names (apache#3525)

Principal names containing invalid characters (spaces, parentheses,
etc.) were causing AWS STS AssumeRole requests to fail with validation
errors. AWS STS role session names must match the pattern [\w+=,.@-]*.

This change:
- Adds AwsRoleSessionNameSanitizer utility class to sanitize strings
  for use as AWS STS role session names
- Replaces invalid characters with underscores and truncates to 64
  characters (AWS maximum)
- Updates AwsCredentialsStorageIntegration to sanitize principal names
  when INCLUDE_PRINCIPAL_NAME_IN_SUBSCOPED_CREDENTIAL is enabled
- Adds tests to verify sanitization behavior and AWS pattern compliance

Fixes issue where principal names like "Joe (local)" would produce
invalid role session names like "polaris-Joe (local)" and cause
AssumeRole to fail. Now sanitized to "polaris-Joe__local_".

* Site: Adds the copyright message to all site pages (apache#3661)

* Site: Change Security link to local security reporting page (apache#3662)

* fix(deps): update dependency org.mongodb:mongodb-driver-sync to v5.6.3 (apache#3654)

* Releasey: use Apache org Nexus credentials (apache#3651)

* Releasey: use the correct SVN credentials (apache#3648)

* CI: Prerequisite PR for apache#3625 (apache#3646)

This change is only needed to update the required-checks to be able to eventually merge apache#3625.

* CI: all-in-one workflow (apache#3625)

This change moves all CI jobs into a single workflow. A single workflow comes with a couple advantages:
* all jobs are visible on one page
* option to re-run all failed jobs at once

The refactoring also simplifies the `.asf.yaml` file by referencing a single required check that can only succeeds if dependent jobs were successful.

The actual CI jobs are in the `ci.yml` file, which is only triggered via a `workflow_call` event.
There are two workflows that call `ci.yml`:
* `ci-main.yml` for `main` and `release/*` branches, with a concurrency group that does not cancel already running workflows
* `ci-pr.yml` for PRs with a concurrency group that cancels previous CI runs

The names of these two calling workflows include information that enrich the workflow view, and the workflows for main, release branches and PRs are grouped separartely in the GH Actions page for the repository. In other words, the reference name (for main + release branches) or the PR number and title are shown in the workflow runs list on the GH Actions page.

* Fix CI required checks (apache#3666)

* Add Sung as committer (apache#3665)

* Fix `CatalogFederationIntegrationTest.testFederatedCatalogWithCredentialVending()` for AWSSDK update (apache#3664)

Recent AWSSDK versions introduce `software.amazon.awssdk.services.s3.model.AccessDeniedException`, hence the assertion on `S3Exception` fails.

* CI/main: re-add commit message to `run_name` (apache#3668)

The default `run_name` value is, in case of `push` events, the commit message. This change re-adds the commit message.

* Add CI workflow to test against Iceberg unreleased versions (apache#3630)

* Update dependency software.amazon.awssdk:bom to v2.41.21 (apache#3639)

* Update actions/checkout digest to de0fac2 (apache#3671)

* Nit: Fix wrong `Nullable` import (apache#3672)

* Explicitly set build-time property `quarkus.datasource.db-kind` (apache#3674)

The property is set for the Polaris admin tool, but not for Polaris server. This causes a startup error with Quarkus 3.31.
