Feature request for product/service

BugBot

Describe the request

Hello,

We like the auto-run feature that Bugbot provides, but we have some branches in Github that we don’t want Bugbot to run when creating a Pull Request (these are branches such as a release branch where the code has already been through several iterations of review). We would like a feature to disable Bugbot for specific branches.

hi @ScottC I raised a feature request on your behalf for this. I can’t guarantee that it will get picked up, but it can be tracked and considered. Cheers!

Branches would be very useful, but also on specific PRs.

Sometimes for larger features I’ll create multiple PRs. For example:

  • feature/add-inventory-backend based on the main branch
  • feature/add-inventory-frontend based on the feature/add-inventory-backend branch

Currently, both BugBot and our Approval Agent automatically run for both branches. However, I only want them to run for the branch that is merging into main. I can imagine leaving BugBot on, however, and the Approval Agent off, though so it would be good to have this control be independent.
