Summary

  • Replace individual usernames with winc-approvers/winc-reviewers team aliases across all cucushift/*/winc/ OWNERS files
  • Matches the pattern already used in the windows/ step-registry paths (22 files)
  • Replaces 3 symlinks in aws/upi/ovn/winc/ that incorrectly pointed to the parent aws/OWNERS (non-winc scope) with standalone files

Files Changed (15)

  • cucushift/winc/OWNERS + upgrade/ + prepare/
  • aws/ipi/ovn/winc/ (2 files)
  • aws/upi/ovn/winc/ (3 files - symlink to real file conversion)
  • azure/ipi/ovn/winc/ (2 files)
  • gcp/ipi/ovn/winc/ (2 files)
  • nutanix/ipi/ovn/winc/ (1 file)
  • vsphere/ipi/proxy/ovn/winc/ (2 files)

Motivation

Individual usernames in OWNERS files require updates whenever team membership changes. Team aliases (winc-approvers/winc-reviewers) are managed centrally in the org config, making ownership maintenance consistent and low-effort.

JIRA

WINC-1939

Summary by CodeRabbit

This PR standardizes Windows Container (winc) code ownership across OpenShift CI infrastructure by centralizing approver and reviewer assignments to team aliases rather than listing individual GitHub usernames.

What's changing:
The PR updates 30+ OWNERS and workflow metadata files across the cucushift installer registry to replace hardcoded individual reviewers and approvers (such as jianlinliu, rrasouli, yunjiang29, jfrancoa, weinliu) with two centralized team aliases: winc-approvers and winc-reviewers. This aligns the winc pathway with the pattern already used in the windows/ step-registry paths.

Scope:

  • Core cucushift winc paths: base OWNERS file, prepare/, and upgrade/ subdirectories
  • Installer rehearse paths across multiple cloud providers: AWS (IPI and UPI), Azure, GCP, Nutanix, and vSphere with proxy
  • Both traditional OWNERS governance files and workflow metadata configuration files

Notable structural change:
Three symlinks in aws/upi/ovn/winc/ that incorrectly pointed to the parent aws/OWNERS (a non-winc scope) are converted to standalone OWNERS files with proper winc team assignments.

Benefit:
Centralizes ownership management — team membership changes now occur in organization configuration rather than requiring updates across numerous OWNERS files. This reduces maintenance overhead and ensures consistency across all winc CI pathways.
