Is the Code Owners app active in Repo settings?
-
The Code Owners app will check on rescope events from source branch of PR, if new Code Owners need to be added to the PR reviewer list and will do so.
-
But there is one exception since version 3 of the app:
-
If previously the new Code Owners got manually removed as reviewers from this PR, then you will need to add them manually as reviewers, in case a merge check requires their approval or if they should just review the PR.
Note: If on PR creation some reviewers are assigned, but not all matching Code Owners are part of it, then the missing Code Owners are also treated as "manually removed". And if all reviewers are removed on PR creation, all Code Owners are re-add, because the app can not distinguish this case from a PR created via REST endpoint due to technical reasons.
