This is a bit awkward, because these two new comment lines applies to both retry.OnError calls. However the above 3 lines only apply to the first retry.OnError call.

I can suggest two solutions:

  1. move these two lines to a separate comment above this one. However this takes it further away from the second OnError call, which is not great.
  2. create a helper function such as:
func retryOnRetryableUpdateError(backoff wait.Backoff, fn func() error) {
  return retry.OnError(backoff, isRetryableUpdateError, fn)
}

and then we could put this comment on this function, which would be the most appropriate place. We could optionally also inline isRetryableUpdateError in that case.

Sounds good :)

Introducing a new variable here that is ready by the defer closure (and not easy to grok straight away), I think it might be cleaner to introduce a method on the updater such as SkipAllUpdates() or DoNotApply() that would:

  • cause Apply(...) to just return nil without doing anything, and
  • (optional) cause the updater to panic() on further Ensure... calls to make sure that SkipUpdates is closely followed by a return from Reconcile()

This is slightly different from the case described in the PR description, right?
I'm guessing the problem here was that on deletions both the uninstallUpdater and the regular u updater would fire, and the latter was both useless and would cause errors since the resource would typically be already gone after deleting the finalizer?
If I got this right, please mention this in the PR description.
