The Blunderbuss bot has been deprecated. This change handles team level Blunderbuss assignments by mapping them via paths instead of labels via CODEOWNERS. Nearly all of these cases were already in CODEOWNERS. We will contact individuals referenced in the Blunderbuss config with info on how to create a team and map that team in CODEOWNERS.

Summary of Changes

Hello @briandorsey, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

I've made changes to deprecate the Blunderbuss bot's functionality by removing its configuration file and migrating its team assignment logic directly into the CODEOWNERS file. This streamlines the process of assigning reviewers by leveraging path-based assignments instead of label-based ones, ensuring that the correct teams are automatically assigned for code reviews based on the affected files.

Highlights

  • Deprecation of Blunderbuss Bot: The Blunderbuss bot, which handled team assignments based on labels, has been deprecated. This change removes its configuration file.
  • Migration of Team Mappings to CODEOWNERS: Team assignments previously managed by Blunderbuss are now handled directly within the CODEOWNERS file, mapping teams to specific file paths.
  • Cleanup of Test Configuration: The badfiles_test.go file was updated to remove the reference to the now-deleted .github/blunderbuss.yml from its allowList.

Code Review

This pull request migrates team assignments from the deprecated blunderbuss.yml to the .github/CODEOWNERS file. The changes correctly remove the blunderbuss.yml file and its reference in a test file. However, there are a few issues in the updated CODEOWNERS file. Some new team entries are missing the required @ prefix, which is a syntax error. There are also a couple of cases where teams seem to be assigned to incorrect paths based on the logic from the old blunderbuss.yml configuration. I've left specific comments with suggestions to fix these issues.
