Tagged PRs

You can use tags to create your own categories to track important pull requests. You might create a tag to easily categorize pull requests:

• Going into a specific release
• Related to a new feature, even across repositories
• For a specific client
• Conforming to a certain naming protocol that has significance in your workplace, like “Feature” or “Bug”

You can apply tags to pull requests manually, or create filters to automatically tag incoming pull requests that meet criteria you define.

Once you have tagged pull requests, you can view and filter your tagged PRs in the Tagged PRs dashboard.

Tagged PRs Dashboard

In the Tagged PRs dashboard, each pull request summary displays a list of tags that have been applied to it.

You can filter PRs by tag, and optionally within a date range by one of the available date fields.

Filter PRs by Tag

You can filter PRs by tag using the Tag filter in the upper left-hand corner of the Tagged PRs dashboard. Select a specific tag to view only the PRs related to that tag. Or select the placeholder “Filter by Tag” to clear the tag filter.

Filter PRs within a date range

You can filter PRs within a date range in the Tagged PRs dashboard. Press the Filter by date button in the upper-right corner of the Tagged PRs dashboard. This opens the date picker.

Select a start date, and an optional end date. You can specify the type of pull request activity to use in the date filter:

• Created at date
• Updated at date
• Closed at date
• Merged at date

If a pull request has not yet been closed or merged, the closed and merged dates are nil, so the PR will not show up in either of those filters.

Press the Apply button to view only pull requests where the specified pull request activity falls within the date range. When you’re done, press the Clear button to remove the date filter.

Apply Tags to PRs

You can apply tags to a PR from the right-click context menu available when you’re viewing pull request summaries in a list view. Right-click a PR summary, and select Apply tags. Any tags that you’ve created appear in this menu, sorted by most recently updated.

When you apply a tag, the pull request summary gets a “Tag” icon.

The tag appears in the pull request detail view.

And the tag is displayed in the pull request summary when you’re viewing the Tagged PRs dashboard.

Remove Tags from PRs

If you want to remove a tag from a pull request, you can do this from within the PR detail view. Right click on a tag in this view, and select the Remove tag option. The tag is removed from the PR, and it no longer appears in the Tagged PRs dashboard.

Create and Manage Tags

You can create and manage tags from the Tags menu.
