This change allows detecting that the releaser-pleaser PR is well merged.
As of today, it fails with "ERR failed to create pending releases: pull request is missing the merge commit".
Previously all commits were authored and committed by
releaser-pleaser <>
This looked weird when looking at the commit. We now check with the
Forge API for details on the currently authenticated user, and use that
name and email as the commit author. The commit committer stays the same
for now.
In GitHub, the default `$GITHUB_TOKEN` does not allow access to the
required endpoint, so for github the user `github-actions[bot]
<41898282+github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>` is hardcoded
when the request fails.
When the release pull request was squashed on GitLab, the release
creation fails with error
Error: failed to create pending releases: pull request is missing the merge commit
This fixes the problem by checking both `MergeCommitSHA` and
`SquashCommitSHA` and using whichever is set.
Turns out that all we need is the path, and not the project id. The path
is way more user friendly, and we can easily get it from a CI variable
or combine it from the namespace & project name.
The GitLab project ID was still hardcoded to my playground project on
GitLab.com.
This commit instead reads from the predefined GitLab CI/CD variable for
the projects ID (`CI_PROJECT_ID`).
