Semaphore v1.4 Release – Save Your CI Minutes

Semaphore v1.4 introduces significant enhancements to CI/CD workflows, offering features like Partial Pipeline Rebuilds and the ability to skip CI builds for draft pull requests, which aim to increase efficiency by reducing unnecessary builds and saving resources. These updates apply to both the Cloud and OS versions, allowing users to rebuild only failing parts of a pipeline and configure projects to bypass CI for draft PRs, thus saving time during debugging and optimizing resource use. The release also expands HTML tag support in markdown reports for better organization and documentation, allows custom parameters in API workflow triggers for dynamic pipeline behavior, and extends session timeouts to improve user experience. Additional updates include reduced logging verbosity, performance improvements, and various bug fixes, all thanks to contributions from external collaborators, enhancing the overall functionality and reliability of Semaphore.
