Resetting Checks

Sometimes Review allows you to reset its review check on a pull request by adding a special comment to the PR conversation.

Basic Usage

To reset a check on a PR, add the following comment to the PR conversation:

sometimesreview reset

This will trigger a new check run that recalculates whether the PR requires a review based on the current configuration and PR state.

When to Use Reset

Resetting a check can be useful in scenarios such as:

• After making configuration changes to sometimesreview.json
• If you want to re-roll the likelihood calculation for the PR
• When troubleshooting check failures
• When you suspect bot inactivity on the review

Examples

Basic Reset

sometimesreview reset

This will reset the check for the current PR.

Advanced Usage

The reset command respects your current configuration settings when re-running the check. If you've recently updated your configuration, the reset will use the new settings.
