PR against release branch is not creating a travis build

Travis CI Discussions & Feedback

When we create PR against develop and main, the PR build is created properly in travis. However, when we create a PR against release/* branch, travis build is not getting created. It must be a travis config issue. What is it?

Hey @sjain,

Hard to say without seeing your .travis.yml file. Can you give some snippets of it?

3 
dist: bionic
language: ruby
cache:
  - bundler
services:
  - mysql
  - redis-server
before_script:
  - gem install bundler:1.17.3
  - bundle install --jobs=3 --retry=3
  - cp config/database.yml.template config/database.yml
  - mysql -e 'CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS dbname;'
script:
  - bundle exec rake db:test:prepare
  - bundle exec rspec
  - bundle exec cucumber
branches:
  only:
    - main
    - develop
    - release/.*

Looking at your current config, it seems to me it would only be triggering only one build when you open a PR from a branch of the repo. You may want to try:

branches:
  only:
    - main
    - develop 
    - /^release\/.*$/
