How to get a build triggered only for pattern specified in the GitRepo resource in JFrog Pipelines?

Question

The files include, exclude regex for a GitRepo resource are getting ignored. This is the resource definition I’ve created:

  - name: platform_pr
    type: GitRepo
    configuration:
      gitProvider: myGithub
      path: dev/helm-values
      files:
        include: ^templates\/(pipelines)\/*.+$
      branches:
        include: ^master$
      buildOn:
        commit: false
        pullRequestCreate: true
        tagCreate: false
      cancelPendingRunsOn:
        newCommit: false
        pullRequestUpdate: true

I don't want the build to be triggered when PR has files in that specific folder. This is not woking as expected.

I see that in your yml you have specifically disabled builds for a commit: commit: false. Unfortunately this files inclusion or exclusion filter only applies to commit events, and not pull requests, tags, or releases:

Please refer to this documentation of GitRepo Resource for more information.
