Triggering CI
To trigger the CI pipeline, first you need to select a Git commit. To select a Git commit, clic the Select Material button present on the CI pipeline.
Once clicked, a list will appear showing various commits made in the repository, it includes details such as the author name, commit date, time, etc. Choose the desired commit for which you want to trigger the pipeline, and then click Start Build to initiate the CI pipeline.
CI Pipelines with automatic trigger enabled are triggered immediately when a new commit is made to the git branch. If the trigger for a build pipeline is set to manual, it will not be automatically triggered and requires a manual trigger.
CI builds can be time-consuming for large repositories, especially for enterprises. However, Devtron's partial cloning feature significantly increases cloning speed, reducing the time it takes to clone your source code and leading to faster build times.
Advantages
- Smaller image sizes
- Reduced resource usage and costs
- Faster software releases
- Improved productivity

The Refresh icon updates the Git Commits section in the CI Pipeline by fetching the latest commits from the repository. Clicking on the refresh icon ensures that you have the most recent commit available.
The Ignore Cache option ignores the previous build cache and creates a fresh build. If selected, will take a longer build time than usual.
Click the
CI Pipeline or navigate to the Build History to get the CI pipeline details such as build logs, source code details, artifacts, and vulnerability scan reports.To access the logs of the CI Pipeline, simply click
Logs.
To view specific details of the Git commit you've selected for the build, click on
Source. This will provide you with information like the commit ID, author, and commit message associated with that particular commit.
By selecting the
Artifacts option, you can download reports related to the tasks performed in the Pre-CI and Post-CI stages. This will allow you to access and retrieve the generated reports, if any, related to these stages. Additionally, you have the option to add tags or comments to the image directly from this section.
To check for any vulnerabilities in the build image, click on
