This task is basically to highlight whenever we change the API in a potentially breaking way. It's not necessarily intended to restrict the imports or to analyze the API classes, but just to highlight that the API changed in some way. I hadn't put a lot of thought into how this would work, but it could theoretically work by analyzing the diff against the base branch to see whether any public API methods have been added, deleted, or modified in public API classes. The intent wasn't to identify a PR that should not be merged, but just to fail the task to highlight that we should look more closely at the API implications. The task could be called "No API changes" or similar, so that a failure would simply imply that there were API changes. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
