Description

To @bradystroud,

When lots of PR's on the SSW.Rules.Content repository are merged at once, a build pipeline starts for each merge. As the pipeline can only run one build at a time (~25min each) it creates a long queue of builds meaning changes can take hours to be deployed.

To get changes out faster, I have been manaully cancelling unnecessary builds

  1. Optimise pipelines to ensure long queues are not created

Research direction

Start by locating the build pipeline used for the SSW.Rules.Content repository and review how concurrent merges create queued builds. Confirm the current single-build limit and define completion as preventing unnecessary queued builds while keeping required changes deployable faster.
