Choosing which branches become posts

2 min read

Keep secret or work-in-progress branches private and only publish from your public branches.

By default Vernettic posts from every branch you push. If you keep sensitive or unfinished work on a separate branch, you can limit posting to your public branches only.

  1. 1Go to Settings → Connections and find the GitHub card.
  2. 2In the “branches to post from” field, list your public branches separated by commas — for example: main, release.
  3. 3Click “save branches”.
  • Leave the field empty to post from every branch (the default).
  • Commits on any branch not in your list are quietly ignored — no post is generated.
  • This is enforced at the webhook, so filtered branches never reach the post generator.
tip

A common setup: develop on a “dev” branch, and only list “main” so posts go out when you merge something finished.
