Question

App connected to GitLab doesn't pull latest commit on deployment

I have a DO App that is deploying a static site connected to GitLab. If I manually trigger a deployment it doesn’t pull the latest commit. It appears to be pulling the commit that was used for the initial deployment when I created the App. Is there anyway to clear the build cache and force it to pull the latest commit?

Hello, this should be resolved now.

Same thing happened to me with github instead of gitlab. automatic deployment did not fix issue. Had to completely destroy app and create again with Automatic deployment enabled

@bojand great thanks so much for the quick fix! I just tested and can confirm this is now working for me!
