Slack notifications bug

I know it’s an experimental feature, but we have notifications set only for master branch

experimental:
notify:
branches:
only:
- master

but when ever some non-master branch breaks due to missing commit (like quick force push to the branch), we get a notification on our channel.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. set notification only for master
  2. set slack notifications
  3. on some non-master branch, do some changes,push them
  4. rebase quickly with master and force push them

I’m encountering the same issue, which I also mentioned here: Webhook notify depending on the branch

My webhook is hit for every branch I push (features, fixes, etc) even though I specify only wanting to notify on develop. Here’s the relevant part of circle.yml:

experimental:
  notify:
    branches:
      only:
        - develop

notify:
  webhooks:
    - url: https://domain.com/webhook

We’re seeing notifications for random branches despite our config looking like this:

experimental:
  notify:
    branches:
      only:
        - master

I’m seeing this issue also. This would be a very helpful feature to have working. If anyone has work arounds for this please let me know.
