Notis

Start a separate branch for a changed work item

When a plan expands or takes a new direction, give the implementation a clean branch. Notis can create it from the base commit and naming rule you provide.

Trigger

Event Updated

Triggers when an existing Google Calendar event is modified. Returns the event ID, change type, and the specific fields that changed with their previous and new values.

Action

Create a branch

Creates a new branch in a bitbucket repository from a target commit hash; the branch name must be unique, adhere to bitbucket's naming conventions, and not include the 'refs/heads/' prefix.

Why this helps

Scope changes can blur what is being worked on unless implementation work gets a clear starting point.

  • Give newly scoped work a distinct branch.
  • Start from the target commit you specify.
  • Reduce delay between a plan change and implementation setup.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Calendar and Bitbucket once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3Specify in one instruction which event changes qualify, the repository, target commit hash, and branch naming rule.
  • 4Pick Event Updated as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real qualifying update and verify the branch name and starting commit.

Questions about this workflow

Can the branch name include refs/heads/?

No. The branch name must be unique, follow Bitbucket naming conventions, and omit the refs/heads/ prefix.

Where does the new branch start?

The action creates it from a target commit hash. Supply the intended base commit in your instruction or available context.
