These features can be turned on and off in your integration’s settings.

​
How Changes Are Published

Changes are committed to your codebase via Github commits. By default, changes are published to a single branch by a single localization focused pull request. You can change this to instead publish by direct commits

​
Active branches

By default, Quetzal only monitors a single branch and publishes changes to it. You can add new branches to track by setting a filter for which new branches to process, or by invoking Quetzal in the comments of a pull request. Branches can also be added manually via the dashboard. Active branches are processed and updated by Quetzal in real time, ensuring localization is up to date.

​
Translation Only Branch

You have the option to split translation updates from other code updates. This would allow translation changes to be automatically merged into main, while leaving other code changes to be published via a different pattern.

​
Manual Updates

If you would prefer to update your codebase manually, you can instead pull changes via our API. Changes can be queried and worked into your workflow on your own for maximum control.
