Problems with virtual machine cache, causing Pull Request state not being refreshed

Question & Answer Builds

Description of the issue

When a pull request is changed on GitHub (by a new commit, for example), Bitrise fails to fetch the latest commit, being stuck in an old build. Forcing the developer to use the “rebuild” button.

Basically, if a new commit B is added to the PR on top of A, the virtual machine still downloads, and tries to build A.

Examples:

Initial PR build:

Git Checkout Configs:
- Commit: d7163b4882a38e7377c3f4cac875d97661221c3d
- Tag: 
- Branch: feature/logout
- CloneDepth:
=> GIT_CLONE_COMMIT_HASH
   value: d02155c8169f592956c9de664e75ace01f0c7179
=> GIT_CLONE_COMMIT_MESSAGE_SUBJECT
   value: Merge d7163b4882a38e7377c3f4cac875d97661221c3d into 024b2d3468334d9535859d130f92e55631057f9f

Hi @FWIgor !

You can use the “Rolling builds” function for this:

@BirmacherAkos This functionality is active in the build. And, even so, I’m facing problems. The issue is not stopping the running build. It is the next build failing for fetching the wrong commit.
