Description
I recently switched the sync-to-downstream job from sequential to paralle when uploading assets to GH.
Unfortunately, a race condition can occur resulting in
23:51:11 + ./uploadAssetsToGHRelease.sh --publish-assets -v 2.14.0 -b crw-2-rhel-8 -n plugin-java8 /var/lib/jenkins/workspace/CRW_CI/sync-to-downstream_2.x/codeready-workspaces-stacks-language-servers-dependencies-node10-s390x.tar.gz 23:51:11 + ./uploadAssetsToGHRelease.sh --publish-assets -v 2.14.0 -b crw-2-rhel-8 -n plugin-java8 /var/lib/jenkins/workspace/CRW_CI/sync-to-downstream_2.x/codeready-workspaces-stacks-language-servers-dependencies-node10-ppc64le.tar.gz 23:51:12 https://github.com/redhat-developer/codeready-workspaces-images/releases/tag/2.14.0-plugin-java8-assets 23:51:12 Upload new asset /var/lib/jenkins/workspace/CRW_CI/sync-to-downstream_2.x/codeready-workspaces-stacks-language-servers-dependencies-node10-s390x.tar.gz 23:51:12 https://github.com/redhat-developer/codeready-workspaces-images/releases/tag/2.14.0-plugin-java8-assets 23:51:12 Upload new asset /var/lib/jenkins/workspace/CRW_CI/sync-to-downstream_2.x/codeready-workspaces-stacks-language-servers-dependencies-node10-ppc64le.tar.gz 23:51:12 Error editing release: Unprocessable Entity (HTTP 422) 23:51:12 Duplicate value for "tag_name"
One option to work around this is to switch back to running in sequence instead of parallel. 
Another option would be to use gh instead of *hub cli:
1. update jenkinsfiles to compile from sources for z and p support: https://github.com/cli/cli/blob/trunk/docs/source.md
2. use gh instead of hub:
gh cli has a --clobber option to overwrite existing assets
gh release upload "${CSV_VERSION}-${ASSET_NAME}-assets" codeready-workspaces-stacks-language-servers-dependencies-python-ppc64le.tar.gz --repo redhat-developer/codeready-workspaces-images --clobber
Successfully uploaded 1 asset to 2.14.0-plugin-java8-assets
vs.
hub has no ability to overwrite
$➔ hub release edit -a "${fileToPush}#$(uname -m)" "${CSV_VERSION}-${ASSET_NAME}-assets" \ > -m "Assets for the ${CSV_VERSION} ${ASSET_NAME} release" -m "Container build asset files for ${CSV_VERSION}" Error editing release: Unprocessable Entity (HTTP 422) Duplicate value for "tag_name"
Alternatively, we could also just use the standard GH API with curl -XPOST to upload a file. Not sure if that option allows for clobbering existing files/tags_names
