commentControl property

If CommentControl is enabled, depending on the setting, builds may not fire until a repository writer comments /gcbrun on a pull request or /gcbrun is in the pull request description.

Only PR comments that contain /gcbrun will trigger builds. If CommentControl is set to disabled, comments with /gcbrun from a user with repository write permission or above will still trigger builds to run. Possible string values are:

• "COMMENTS_DISABLED" : Do not require /gcbrun comments from a user with repository write permission or above on pull requests before builds are triggered. Comments that contain /gcbrun will still fire builds so this should be thought of as comments not required.
• "COMMENTS_ENABLED" : Builds will only fire in response to pull requests if: 1. The pull request author has repository write permission or above and /gcbrun is in the PR description. 2. A user with repository writer permissions or above comments /gcbrun on a pull request authored by any user.
• "COMMENTS_ENABLED_FOR_EXTERNAL_CONTRIBUTORS_ONLY" : Builds will only fire in response to pull requests if: 1. The pull request author is a repository writer or above. 2. If the author does not have write permissions, a user with write permissions or above must comment /gcbrun in order to fire a build.
