Railway Watch Patterns Skipping Incorrectly

Have a project with this watchpath setup:


backend/**
shared/**

but it's skipping commits with changed files in these areas.

See screenshots with an example.

The commit does have changes in other files not in these directories. Could that be why railway isn't picking it up? Because not all files match the watchpath?

That would be different behavior than I'd expect.

Hello,

Thanks for the detailed report and screenshots. The behavior you're describing does sound unexpected - watchpaths should trigger builds when any files in those directories change, regardless of whether other files outside those paths are also modified.

You're the first to report this specific behavior, so I've logged it to track if others experience similar issues. If you notice any patterns or can provide additional examples, feel free to share them here.

Best regards,

Brody

It's happening pretty consistently in my account. Happy to provide exact PRs and what not - is there any way you can look into my particular instance? or should I file a separate support ticket for that?

No need to open a separate ticket. If you have a minimal reproducible example (MRE), please share it here. I’ll add that information to our internal ticket so we can investigate further if we receive more reports of this.
