🌴Branch Configurations

The Branch Configuration page in Hivel allows you to fine-tune various aspects of your branch management, ensuring accurate tracking and reporting of your development activities. Here's a detailed guide on configuring your release branches, review branches, flashy review thresholds, and PR exclusions.

Release Branch

The Release Branch section lets you specify the main branches to be tracked for deployment frequency calculations.

Review Branch

The Review Branch section is where you designate branches for review activities. Only the PRs merged into these branches will be considered for review time calculations.

Flashy Review

The Flashy Review section allows you to define what constitutes a flashy review for your organization, with customizable thresholds for Lines of Change and time taken to review.

PR Exclusion

When the flag is turned on, branches can be added to both the Source and Destination fields as comma-separated values. Any PR that exactly matches a source branch and has a destination branch that partially matches one in the Destination list will be excluded from the PRs list. Consequently, all PR metrics calculations for these PRs will also be excluded. These changes will only apply to data processed after the configuration is saved.
