Branch or a folder entry I expect is missing from the picker
What you are seeing
A branch or a folder entry I expect is missing from the picker.
#Why it happens
The picker lists only the first 100 branches of a repository, and it loads a folder's contents in one go. In a repository with lots of branches, or a very large folder, some entries never appear.
#What to do
Paste a direct GitHub file URL for the file you want instead of browsing to it.
#Limits that apply here
Limit | What happens |
|---|---|
Branches: first 100 only | The picker never fetches more than the first 100 branches, and it does not load further pages of them. |
Folder listings load once | A folder's contents are fetched in a single request, so very large folders may be listed incompletely. |

Confluence caps the content property at 32 KB, and the trimmer empties the macro-key list

The rest of this family.
Found it? Good.
