The Files section in PullRule gives you a complete overview of all files within your repository’s main branch. It helps you understand ownership, risk trends, and recent changes at both a directory and file level.

​
Authors & Ownership

At the top of the overview, PullRule displays a breakdown of file ownership. You can quickly see which contributors or bots are responsible for changes across your codebase.

​
File Explorer

Below the ownership view, you’ll find a navigable file explorer of your repository. From here, you can drill into directories or open individual files to see more detail.

​
File Details

When viewing a specific file, PullRule provides key insights to help you maintain code quality:

​
Risk Trend

Each file shows a risk trend chart over time. This makes it easy to spot files that may become problematic and need extra attention.

​
Authors & Ownership

You can see which contributors have modified the file and their relative share of ownership. All pull requests that touched the file are listed, with details such as:
  • Title and number
  • Date created
  • Reviewers
  • Risk score
This lets you track the history of changes and contributions at a glance.

​
Why It Matters

The Files Overview helps you:
  • Understand who owns what in your repository
  • Detect risky files before they impact stability
  • Trace recent changes and contributions quickly
With this feature, teams can stay on top of code quality, ownership, and risks in one place.
