Monorepos and watch paths

Deploy several services from one repo, each from its own directory, and build only the ones whose files changed.

One service per package

1. Add a GitHub repo service. The scan lists JS workspace packages (pnpm, npm, yarn, bun), skipping lint, config and test packages. Tick the ones to deploy.
2. Each becomes a service with its Root directory set.

For other layouts, set Root directory in Settings > Source yourself, for example /services/api.

Watch paths

In Settings > Build, set Watch paths (gitignore style, relative to the repo root):

/services/api/**
/packages/shared/**
!**/*.md

A push that changes no matching file records a Skipped deployment with "No changed files matched the watch paths". The first push and force pushes deploy everything. Watch paths from a config file (build.watchPatterns) win over the setting.

Shared code

When a service imports code from outside its root directory, keep the root at the repo root and set the build and start commands instead, for example pnpm --filter api build.
