You cannot use branches and branches-ignore to filter the same event in a single workflow. If you want to both include and exclude branch patterns for a single event, use the branches filter along with the ! character to indicate which branches should be excluded.

If you define a branch with the ! character, you must also define at least one branch without the ! character. If you only want to exclude branches, use branches-ignore instead.

The order that you define patterns matters.

  • A matching negative pattern (prefixed with !) after a positive match will exclude the Git ref.
  • A matching positive pattern after a negative match will include the Git ref again.

The following workflow will run on pull_request events for pull requests that target releases/10 or releases/beta/mona, but not for pull requests that target releases/10-alpha or releases/beta/3-alpha because the negative pattern !releases/**-alpha follows the positive pattern.

on:
  pull_request:
    branches:
      - 'releases/**'
      - '!releases/**-alpha'
