Long-lived branches

Hi,

I would like to add our release branches as long-lived branches to our project. I could not find a way to add them manually, and based on my understanding they should created from analysis. Right now we only use automatic analysis based on pushes to branch on GH. I’ve done a few pushes to release branches but they have so far no been created in the project.

Thanks in advance.

Hey there.

As documented for Automatic Analysis

Currently, automatic analysis has the following limitations:

  • Branch analysis (analysis of non-pull request branches other than the main branch) is not supported.

To analyze other branches, you’ll need to switch to CI-Based Analysis.

You do need to declare these branches as long lived or you will not get reports for them, even when using CI based analysis. We do that for our release branches and it works as expected.

Thanks for the clarification. I must have read that section a handful of times, but missed that part. I’ve done some tests with CI based analysis, and that works fine.

Yeah, I had the regexp all sorted out. But I had missed the fact that branch analysis do not work with automatic analysis.
