Dismiss Reviews

Dismiss previous reviews on a pull request.


The dismiss_reviews action allows Mergify to automatically dismiss approved or changes requested reviews when new commits are pushed to the pull request. It is a powerful tool that can help maintain the freshness and relevance of reviews in your pull request workflow.
