What's your watch path set to?

to answer your underlying question though, no, you cannot opt out of Railway updates. Although Railway does keep new experimental features separated as feature flags which you can enable or disable in your account settings

@Fragly It's for our frontend service. It was in our railway.json which worked great for awhile, then a couple months ago that stopped working and we had to move it into the hardcoded settings in the railway interface. And THEN the metal build doesn't interpret these correctly and just skips everything anyway

src/**
public/**
scripts/**
index.html
package.json
package-lock.json
.npmrc
Dockerfile
vite.config.js
tsconfig.json
!backend/**```

It's crazy they pushed us to use that metal build automatically, knowing it would break the watch paths. That kind of thing just can't happen.

interesting, thanks for explaining
