While I initially thought that $(AUTORELEASE) would be a nice feature to avoid 
the standard review comment “Please bump the PKG_RELEASE”, it turned into a 
massive increase of bandwidth usage: Every checkout of openwrt.git and package 
feeds needs to be a full clone instead of a shallow one to have all commits in 
place.

I’m suggesting dropping that feature and instead implement a (GitHub) CI 
workflow which fails if the commit did not bump the PKG_RELEASE.

It wasn’t a fully thought through idea and I think it’s time to revert it - 
sorry for the inconvenience.

Other thoughts?


The AUTORELEASE has been a nice feature from the package PR maintenance perspective.

Earlier there was constant trouble with concurrent PRs for the same package having the same PKG_RELEASE bump, or the maintainer doing a small change with a bump while there was an open PR with the same bump. The led to trivial conflicts and rebase needs for PRs. AUTORELEASE has tackled that nicely.
