Pull request overview

This PR downgrades azure-resourcemanager-cosmos from 2.54.1 to 2.53.4 in the Spark Connector parent POM to unblock usage in Non-Public clouds (e.g., Azure Government, Azure China). Version 2.54.0 of azure-resourcemanager-cosmos updated the API version to 2025-10-15, which is likely not yet available in Non-Public cloud environments. The version is pinned using a Maven property to intentionally bypass the repository's automated x-version-update mechanism.

Changes:

• Introduced a Maven property pinned-resourcemanager-cosmos.version set to 2.53.4 and used it for the azure-resourcemanager-cosmos dependency version, replacing the x-version-update-tracked version of 2.54.1.

PR Deep Review — azure-cosmos-spark 4.44.2

Overall Assessment: Approve with minor fixes

This hotfix correctly pins azure-resourcemanager-cosmos to 2.53.4 to restore Spark connector functionality in non-public clouds. The root cause was PR #47860 — an automated bulk merge-back that bumped RM Cosmos from 2.54.0 → 2.54.1, pulling in an API version not yet deployed to non-public clouds. Release 4.44.1 shipped with this broken dependency; this hotfix addresses it.

The approach — using a Maven property to opt out of {x-version-update} automation — is a novel pattern (no precedent found in this repo), but it is the correct tactical solution for this situation. The property is self-documenting and the x-version-update marker was properly removed from the dependency line.

Mechanical completeness: All 5 connector variants, the sample POM, the Fabric auth POM, version_client.txt, all CHANGELOGs, all READMEs, quick-start.md, and spark.yml are consistently updated. No missing files. ✅

Top findings:

• 🔴 Two typos in all 5 user-facing CHANGELOG entries ("reseourcemanager", "publci")
• 🟡 No tracking mechanism to eventually unpin the dependency
• 🟡 CHANGELOG categorization should be "Bugs Fixed" rather than "Other Changes"

Additional notes:

• If squash-merging, ensure the final commit message fixes the typo from commit f5d6f1b ("resourcemanaer" → "resourcemanager")
• The Scala semicolon removal and storage account rotation are clean, well-isolated changes
• version_client.txt GA column correctly stays at 4.44.1 per Azure SDK convention
