Pushing code to a code host (GitHub/GitLab only)

Learn how to push code changes to a code host without making a merge request.

After you've created a batch change, you will be redirected to a page displaying a list of the changesets the Batch Change created. From this page, you can apply any bulk operation to 1+ changesets.

To push code to a new branch on a code host without also creating a merge request, simply select 'push only' from the dropdown menu:

Notes

• With pushed-only changesets, you are still able see CI feedback, as long as it triggers on code pushes.
• The review status of a pushed-only changeset is always "N/A."
• The status of a pushed-only changeset is always "OPEN."
• To publish a pushed-only changeset, simply select the changeset in the Batch Changes UI and select 'Publish.'

Requirements

To push code to a new branch on a code host, you will need:

• Admin permissions for the batch change
• Write access to the changeset's repository on the code host
• A personal access token or a global service account token configured for the code host
