Buff Development
Review and publishing

Publishing upstream

Opening a pull request / merge request in the source repository.

After approval, Buff publishes the changes upstream.

  • For each changed module the provider is shown (GitHub PR / GitLab MR / Bitbucket PR / Gitea PR — Forgejo is shown as Gitea) along with the upstream.
  • Access is pre-checked; if a token is missing, there is a link to Settings.
  • For repositories connected through the connector (self-hosted git behind a firewall), the PR/MR is opened by the agent in your network — the access token stays with you and is not stored by us.
  • You can choose the target branch.

The “Approve and create PR/MR” button opens a pull request / merge request in your repositories; our temporary PRs are closed at the same time. You do the merge.
