Repository pages
Each repository in the sidebar opens its own page: its open pull requests, its default branch and its sync state.
On this page
Choose a repository under Repositories in the sidebar to open its page. The page shows one repository only: what needs attention in it, its default branch, its charts, its open pull requests and its activity. It has two tabs, Activity and Bots.
#What the dots in the sidebar mean
Each repository line in the sidebar can carry up to two dots.
- Red: needs attention. A pull request is waiting for your review, the default branch is failing its checks, an open pull request is failing its checks, or an open pull request has merge conflicts. Drafts are not counted.
- Blue: new to you. Someone else commented, reviewed or pushed on an open pull request you have opened before, since you last opened it. Your own activity never turns a repository blue.
The ⓘ beside Repositories says the same in two lines.
#The Activity tab
Status
The Status panel at the top spells out the dots, one plain line each, for example "2 pull requests are waiting for your review" or "main is failing CI". Everything a line names is further down the same page. With nothing to report, it shows one calm line.
Blue clears for a pull request when you open it. To clear it for the whole repository, choose Mark all seen. Opening the repository page does not clear it, so the list you came to read is still there.
The default branch
Under the status, a compact row shows the repository's default branch and whether its latest checks passed. Open it to see the pull requests that merged into it, with the daily trend charts. This is the same row the default branch strip shows for every repository. A failing default branch is information only: it never adds to a count or to My turn.
Threads, charts and open pull requests
- Threads is a bar of the repository's review threads by state: Untouched, Replied, Likely addressed and Resolved. See What the thread states mean.
- The charts are the workspace's flow figures for this repository alone. Choose More charts to see the rest.
- The open pull requests list comes next. Show all N open PRs opens Open pull requests with this repository already chosen.
- The feed at the bottom is the Feed for this repository only.
#The Bots tab
Bots is Bots Monitoring for this repository: which review bots comment here, how much, and how often people act on what they say. The page remembers which of the two tabs you last used for each repository.
#If Limn cannot read the files
Where the AI features are on, the status panel can add one line with no dot: "Limn can't read this repository's files, so its docs can't be offered", with the reason (no access, an empty repository, or not found on GitHub). It changes no count. See Add documents.
