Ability to forbid generated title for edits done on github

Open stof opened this issue 8 years ago • 6 comments

When someone edits a file directly on github and does not fill a commit message, Github will fill it as Update <filename>, which then becomes the default PR title too.

It would be great to have an option to request more info for such title, without having to list all possible file names in the config.

Sorry for the delay in responding to this. I'm +1 for this as an optional add-on. I've found that the app is a lot more useful in yelling at folks who leave the body empty as opposed to the titles, because the title is less indicative of if the body has the necessary information. Would you be interested in implementing this feature @stof? If not, it'll be on my backburner :)

@hiimbex I still think that the title is important (especially on big projects), as the body does not appear in the PR list.

How do you see this appearing in the configuration ? A boolean value sibling to the existing list of default titles ?

👍 that makes sense. and yes maybe something like:

requestInfoDefaultTitles:
  - update things
requestInfoAutomatedTitles: true

This has been implemented right?

Sorray, I misinterpreted it. I would like to add this feature.
