| title: "Packit now supports multiple release streams" | ||

||
| There are upstream projects that have multiple release streams and, for example, regularly release | ||
| patch versions for every active minor version. With `pull-from-upstream` you have been able to follow | ||
| only the highest stream, but that now changes. By switching `Monitoring status` of your package from | ||
| `Monitoring` to `Monitoring all`, you enable triggering `pull-from-upstream` for every released version, | ||
| not only the highest. This means you can use `version_update_mask` or `upstream_tag_include`/`upstream_tag_exclude` | ||
| (those require `upstream_project_url` to be set) to filter specific release stream you want to follow, | ||

||
| or have multiple `pull-from-upstream` jobs, each matching different releases and targeting different dist-git branches. | ||
|
|
||

|
|
||
| ## Configuration example | ||
|
|
||
| For an upstream project releasing 1.7.z and 1.6.z streams, you could configure the jobs like this: | ||
|
|
||
| ``` | ||
| jobs: | ||
|
|
||
| - job: pull_from_upstream | ||
| trigger: release | ||
| upstream_tag_exclude: ^v1\.6\.\d+$ | ||
| dist_git_branches: | ||
| - fedora-rawhide | ||
|
|
||
| - job: pull_from_upstream | ||
| trigger: release | ||
| upstream_tag_include: ^v1\.6\.\d+$ | ||
| dist_git_branches: | ||
| - fedora-branched | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| With this configuration security backports to the 1.6 upstream branch would result in Packit opening dist-git PRs | ||
| against branched Fedoras while for any other release Packit would open dist-git PRs in Rawhide. | ||
