🔧 Configurations

rules

A list of rules that restrict pull requests to be merged into only certain branches.

Each rule is a list of branch patterns separated by <-.

The left-hand side specifies the name of the base branch, and the right-hand side specifies the name of the head branch.

If you want to merge only development branches into the main branch, configure as follows.

rules: |
  main <- development

Multiple branch names can be specified on the right side, separated by spaces.

rules: |
  main <- development staging

You can also use Glob to specify the branch name.

Minimatch is used for the matching process.

If you want to merge only feature and bugfix branches into the development branch, configure as follows.

rules: |
  development <- feature/* bugfix/*

Also, multiple rules can be specified by adding a new line as shown below.

rules: |
  main <- development
  development <- feature/* bugfix/*
