CONSUL CLOSES PRs SLOWER, GITHUB ACTIONS ALIGN ACROSS HASHICORP

By RepoJournal · Filed · About HashiCorp

Consul's stale PR automation just got a lot less aggressive, giving maintainers 90 days before a PR starts gathering dust instead of 60.

The Consul team shipped a much-needed correction to PR hygiene [1], doubling the window before pull requests get marked stale (90 days now, down from 60) and giving them another full 60 days before closure instead of 30. This is the kind of change that silently kills contributor friction. Meanwhile, across the HashiCorp ecosystem, both go-envparse and go-syslog are rolling out actions/setup-go v7.0.0 [2] [3], which migrated the GitHub Action to ESM and upgraded its internal dependencies. It's routine maintenance, but it's happening across multiple repos simultaneously, which means your Go CI pipelines are about to get more consistent.
