Conversation
Companion to apache/devlake#9229, which adds a DORA project setting that counts only merged pull requests whose source branch matches a regex. Adds a "Choose which pull requests count" section to the Lead Time for Changes page: why to use it, where to set it, how the pattern is matched, examples, which metrics it affects, and the equivalent dora metric plugin option. Links to it from the DORA page and the PR Cycle Time page.

Companion to apache/devlake#9229, which adds a DORA project setting, Source branch pattern (
prHeadRefPattern). When it is set, only merged pull requests whose source branch matches the regex count toward Lead Time for Changes. This PR is a draft until apache/devlake#9229 is merged, since the option may still change in review.docs/Metrics/LeadTimeForChanges.mdrefs/heads/prefix, empty and invalid values), examples, which metrics it affects, and the equivalentdorametric plugin option. A one-line pointer to it at the end of "How is it calculated?"docs/DORA.mddocs/Metrics/PRCycleTime.mdDoes this close any open issues?
