Problem

I see a higher number of QRs in the Chrome Extension than the amount of modified/added code of my Pull Request. Few of the QRs are even in files not modified in my specific PR !

Cause #1 (Most common)

The target branch contains commits that were not merged from the target branch to the pull request branch

Solution #1

Configure the pull request flow to merge from the target branch (even if done locally) prior to running the build scanner

git clone git@github.repo/repo.git
git checkout branch_name

Cause #2

The target branch contains commits that were not reported to sealights and the user merged from the target branch to the pull request branch

Solution #2

validate in their CI server (Jenkins mostly) + scm that the last commit was reported to sealights via a build. If not, then initiate a build.
