Which repositories diffy watches, and how to pause or remove one

How a repository gets watched

The repositories you give the GitHub App appear on the Repositories page by themselves and are watched at once. To change which ones diffy can see, change the App's access on GitHub. You can also add one by hand from the repositories the App can reach: choose Add repository and pick it from the list.

A repository belongs to the account that owns it. The Repositories page shows the ones of the organization you are looking at; the organization menu at the top of the sidebar switches between them.

Pause and remove

  • Pause with the Watch switch. The repository stays in the list, but its pull requests are not reviewed until you switch it on.
  • Remove hides it. The reviews it already has stay in the history, and adding the same repository again brings it back.

Settings in the repository

What the reviewers of a project care about lives in the repository itself, in .diffy.yaml, so it is reviewed and versioned like the rest of the code.
