Docs: Recreating onboarding PR does not work with Bitbucket server as cannot rename PRs #5481

Closed biergit closed 4 years ago

biergit commented 4 years ago

What Renovate type are you using? Selfhosted for Bitbucket server Describe the bug Renovate requires the title of the PR of an existing onboarding PR to be changed in order to issue the onboarding PR once again. As far as I know Bitbucket server does not allow editing merged PRs

Why do you need the onboarding PR again if you already merged it? Onboarding is purely optional - you can simply add the renovate.json file to your repo to enable it.

Hi :) Well it is even described in the docs (See https://docs.renovatebot.com/reconfigure-renovate/ - Nuke config and re-onboard). I want to disable renovate for a while and decided to remove the config file. Later I wanted to activate it again with the simplicity and pleasure of using the onboarding PR.

I Googled quickly and it doesn't seem like you can delete a merged PR either - only unmerged ones. We are a little stuck then in that case, so the limitation should be noted in our docs (PR welcome - they are in this repo).

Yes that's right. I agree a documentation update should do as it is probably not a too common case. I'll see what I can do. By the way it's a really cool tool 👍
