Build path filtering 1 year, 11 months ago

From Gabriel Simmer to ~sircmpwn/sr.ht-discuss

Something I've found very useful for keeping build minutes down on any CI provider is checking what paths have changed and depending on that go ahead with the rest of the pipeline, or abort early (but still mark as success). Some providers have this natively, others require a bit of scripting, but as builds currently work I don't see a way of doing this natively.

Curious if anyone has found a way around this, or would also find a feature like this useful - whether it be native support for marking a job as successful and cancel it, or filtering by paths changed (given the feel of builds I think the former is more fitting).
