Hi all,
If I turn on the PR Environments feature, is there a way to get the branch name as an environment variable? I'd like to use it to separate some of the services that the deployment may use, and as a flag for things like Sentry logging.

You want RAILWAY_ENVIRONMENT_NAME
See this docs page for a list of other variables - https://docs.railway.app/reference/variables#railway-provided-variables

Thanks, I also see RAILWAY_GIT_BRANCH in that list, would that be used in PR environments?

Truthfully, I have not used PR environments myself so I would not know what that would evaluate to in a PR environment.
Nothing left to do but to try then!
