Summary
An error log was printed whenever a nil attribute was set for a span. This implies every variable has to be nil-checked before it can be assigned to some span attribute. In general it feels more natural to expect that passing
nil
is accepted without producing any error log or warning.span:set_attribute
is a NOOP if the attribute does not already exist, else it means unsetting that attribute (just like before). Now both of these are applied silently, without printing an error.Checklist
