[Feature Request] Include /review -i in GitHub App automation

[esauser]

The GitHub App automatically runs /review when a PR is opened, but it does not do anything to subsequent pushes to the PR. We'd like to run /review -i for each subsequent push.

I would like to add perhaps it could be an option. I prefer to re-request review personally.

i believe #215 is right for this purpose correct @tjwp ?

This would need some additional changes to handle incremental. It would need to look for a synchronize action on a PR and trigger an incremental review (only available by arg currently). It should probably be an additional setting.

i am not sure you would like review to be run automatically every new commit. it can flood the git with a lot(!) of messages.

my suggestion - use it manually, when needed.

[esauser]

This can almost be accomplished already. synchronize can be added to the handle_pr_actions and improve -i can be added to pr-commands. The only thing missing is being able to do it differently the first time vs. every time.

If the config was separated out to allow you to specify specific commands for specific actions we'd have that flexibility. Maybe something to consider @mrT23 .

[mrT23]

Technically its possible, i agree.

However, optional features still need to be viable.
In practice, even as an option, would you really want 10-20 long review feedback messages in a single PR ?
we tried this way (Triggering on every commit) when starting developing pr-agent, and it was awful

I think a better option is to enable to update the initial review message after every commit, so review feedback will always be up-to-date.

but I am not sure. open for feedback

@mrT23 I would expect it to update existing, yes.
