[gatsby-plugin-netlify-cms] Multiple git branches support #21011

Closed tristanMatthias closed 4 years ago

tristanMatthias commented 4 years ago

Summary

I would like to be able to configure what git branch my Netlify CMS instance uses. Currently, I have not found any way to pass in environment variables from Gatsby to Netlify (attempted webpack configs)

Motivation

This allows us to deploy to multiple environments and the content is linked to the current environment, not the one setting for all.

It looks like this is probably a limitation on the Netlify side of things and not Gatsby.

According to this section in their docs which gives you all the options that you can set in your config.yml file, Netlify currently only supports a single git branch.

Yeah, that's what I was afraid of. Ok, thanks @deriegle
