Control when deployment happens.
Configure when an environment deploys — either automatically on every push to a connected Git branch, or manually from the dashboard.
Push to deploy
This is the default deployment trigger. When active, deployments happen automatically on every push to the Git branch that is connected to the environment. The fortrabbit GitHub App handles this by listening for push events on your repository.
Manual deployment
When manual deployment is selected, no automatic deployments will happen. Initiate a deployment from the dashboard.
Deploy now button
Trigger a new deployment for an environment based on the latest commit. The "Deploy now" button appears in the deployment settings for the environment. This action redeploys the latest commit and applies all current deployment-related settings.
The "Deploy now" button is available with both deployment trigger settings. Redeploying a commit can be useful when a deployment-related setting has changed. To avoid inconsistent states, it is not possible to deploy an older commit again.
