Readthedocs.org: 'versions' became full, and new branch cannot be listed

[KengoTODA]

Thanks for providing so cool product! I'm a heavy user so facing one issue:

Details

• Read the Docs project URL: https://readthedocs.org/projects/spotbugs/
• Read the Docs username (if applicable): rtd-bot

It seems that this issue is similar with #2491.

Expected Result

• I can see the newly pushed branch in the version list. So I can check the build result on time.

Actual Result

• I cannot see it even after I wait several days. So I cannot confirm the build result on time.
• I still can see deleted branches in that page, even though they're totally needless for me.

Can you please try to re-sync your webhook? https://docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/webhooks.html#resyncing-webhooks

For detecting new branches we need new permissions.
Also, this can be achieved by triggering a new build.

[KengoTODA]

visit the integration detail page and follow the directions for re-syncing your repository webhook.

I cannot find the directions for re-syncing webhook in integration detail page. I also confirmed that the config page in GitHub side has no direction either.

I'll attach screenshot of RTD site. Do I need to delete and recreate webhook?

Your webhook wasn't created when you imported the project, that's why. You can add new permissions from the gihub side. These permissions (events) https://docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/webhooks.html#github

Thanks! I've updated config in GitHub side, and watch coming builds to confirm how it works.

Was the problem solved?

[KengoTODA]

I've confirmed that new branch is listed in the RTD's version page. However old branch (already removed from GitHub) is still listed. I hope this has no problem for my app.

I will confirm with my users, to make sure we can close this issue. Thanks for your waiting!

[KengoTODA]

It seems that no problem has been reported recently. Thank you, I will close this issue :)

Old branches that are marked as active in RTD, don't get deleted. That's by design.

[stsewd]

Only inactive ones are deleted
