Is it possible to have a lighthouse project track changes to a certain branch in a github repository, instead of the entire repo? The situation is that there is 1 master branch, and every dev pulls their own branch for developing, and merges into the master branch only when ready.

As it is now, all changesets to that repo is being fed into lighthouse, but I only need to see the changesets for the master branch of the repo. Thanks!

    I'll have to ponder this a bit. Lighthouse itself only provides an api for scripts and services to ping. Really, it's their responsibility to only selectively ping on the master git branch. Github does this already for Campfire notifications.

    The Lighthouse service could be modified in the same manner, but then you'd lose any ticket updates until the branch was moved to master. I may add a visibility flag to Lighthouse changesets that lets you send commits that get processed for ticket updates, but don't show in the stream.

    One problem here is that tickets might get updated multiple times. They shouldn't if the SHA doesn't change, but I know how some people can get with their history.
