Hey team - in the prefect UI, is there an easy way to see which branch a deployment is using? I'm deploying using a prefect.yaml and dictating the github branch to use using the pull step

prefect.deployments.steps.git_clone

? In prefect 1 using code commit it showed in the UI the branch the current deployment was running from which was very useful

hi @Mitch - are you setting the branch in your step like this?

Yep exactly, but I don't see anything on the UI to reflect that. At times, I would like to deploy something from a non standard branch for one of many deployements in a prefect.yaml. Viewing in the UI to confirm would be nice

i see - how about if I opened a PR to change this to this

<http://deployment_logger.info|deployment_logger.info>(f"Cloned the {branch or 'main'!r} branch of repository {repository!r} into {directory!r}")

hmm well there's slight annoyance around

main

/

master

there, so maybe

<http://deployment_logger.info|deployment_logger.info>(f"Cloned the {branch or 'default'!r} branch of repository {repository!r} into {directory!r}")

Could it be added as a tag maybe

as a tag on the flow run? i don't think we'd want to add a tag for all users in a case like this - many people do a lot of logic on their tags that we wouldnt want to pollute however that should be possible for you individually if you wanted to

Is there a reason the flows deployed with a github pull step in the prefect.yaml don't reference it within the Infrastructure Document ID or Storage Document ID?

yeah - infra/storage document IDs refer to the storage / infra blocks used to do block-based deployments (pre

prefect deploy

+

prefect.yaml

)

We have plans to add the

pull_steps

of a deployment to the UI which I think should help here https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/issues/10467

Hey @Jenny Is there any update on this? This would be very very helpful for us.

Thanks for checking in. I believe this is being worked on but let me check with the team and make sure it gets a bit of attention next week.

Great, thanks!
