Request from Slack discussion:
It would be great if our BuildKite integration was able to monitor PR labels. (Supposedly this can be done via https://buildkite.com/resources/plugins/sv-oss/github-pr-labels-buildkite-plugin/ but I know nothing about BuildKite set up and merely googled this).
With that in hand, someone could then define labels which do something similar to the [skip ci] and [skip build] markers used in commit messages, but more convenient.
- One label could suppress all builds on the PR. Having this as a label would make it more transparent (you don't need to look at commit messages); it would avoid accidents were one forget to put the
[skip build] marker on all commits (including merge commits); and labels can have longer description text which explain the behavior
- another label could suppress generation of package updates (similar to
[skip ci]).
