Rerun Github validation on a PR without a new commit
When a CI job is set to run on a PR creation, if the source destination is missing something that the deploy requires, it will fail. To solve this, we must go to the source destination, make settings changes, and then make an empty commit to the pull request to re-run the CI.
It would be nice for there to be a link or button in Gearset to rerun the CI and update the Pull Request that the validation was successful.
In the ‘continuous integration dashboard’ in Gearset, for ‘validate pull request’ jobs, there is a ‘run now’ play button to run the job manually. You can therefore update the target and then re-run the PR validation without needing an additional commit.
To be able to run the ‘validate pull request’ job manually, you need to have permission to run the parent CI job manually (e.g. be the job owner).

Hi team,
Is there an option to re-run a Pull-request validation without logging in Gearset (due to licenses limitation usually) ? I am thinking about a comment or key word/s at the Pull-request level that could re-trigger the PR validation.
Thanks in advance,
Adrian
