Send emails only on commits to specific branches (BB-11787)

    • Our product teams collect and evaluate feedback from a number of different sources. To learn more about how we use customer feedback in the planning process, check out our new feature policy.

      We have a few git repositories in our company. Our development model involves developing on our private branches and then merging those with master. The problem with bitbucket is that we get notification emails on commits to ALL branches not specific ones. This is affecting our workflows a lot and is a pain for people who want to keep an eye on repositories for spurios commits. We have tried numerous email filters to weed out private branches but they work as expected. We would ideally like to receive email notifications ONLY ON these type of branches

      • master (i.e. a branch name matching a specificed name)
      • release-branch-* (i.e. a branch name matching a specified regex)

      This is very critical for our workflow.

            This issue shouldn't be closed.

            At a minimum, the email from pullrequests-reply@bitbucket.org for every pull request should include the name of the affected branch in the subject line, so that we can filter these emails appropriately. That is not a big ask.

            So is anything happening here.
            The feature still seems not to be there (We use 'Atlassian Bitbucket v7.14.0')

            yes, current notifications settings are.... not optimal

            Right now you get ALL the emails for any push to the repository. And worst of all: the email doesn't even include the affected branch, so good luck figuring out what's been updated.

            I doubt they'll get to this any time soon. I had given up waiting pretty early and just created my own CI job that watches for commits on specific branches and sends emails accordingly.

            For real, any updates? This would be really useful.

            can we get an update on this issue?

            I do not see any feature in bitbucket to watch commits on a specific branch. The notification settings are only on the whole repository, so you get email notifications for all commits on all branches.
            If it's a hidden feature, please indicate where to find it.
            Otherwise please re-open.
