It seems like, for a new PR with no additional edits,
recreate
andrebase
are the same. One thing that surprised me is thatrecreate
does not fetch a dependency's release notes again. This was surprising behavior for me, because there was an instance where a dependency's release notes were updated, but I didn't see the updates added to the PR after commenting@dependabot recreate
. My interpretation of "recreate" is that everything is recreated, and I'd expect the process for creating a PR and recreating a PR (such as fetching release notes) to be almost identical. But, if I'm not mistaken,recreate
really only recreates the initial commit for the PR, erasing additional commits.To summarize,
recreate
seems to be only concerned with the PR's commit history, but I expectedrecreate
to also be effective for the initial PR comment, too.Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
