Codecov shouldn't be failing based on the content of this PR, but even if it does, it's not intended to block merging PRs. I'm not sure where our configuration is wrong–I thought we had this sorted out.

We might be missing the patch config for the release-1.9 branch which we have in the main branch.

cluster-api-provider-azure/.github/codecov.yml

Lines 8 to 12 in 7659a9f

	patch:
	default:
	target: auto
	threshold: 1%
	informational: true

@willie-yao Do you think adding the patch config to the release branch would solve the problem ?

I created a #3734 to ublock. Might help?

@nawazkh Yes it will. This should've been backported so that's my bad!

[mboersma]

Could someone (re-)review this? I rebased it after the codecov change was merged to release-1.9.
