2018–2020

Vercel introduced the ability to cancel ongoing deployments directly from the dashboard, preventing them from completing and unblocking queued deployments. For teams requiring higher throughput, the 'Concurrent Builds' setting was highlighted as a way to increase the number of simultaneous deployments. This post introduces the auto job cancellation feature for Vercel for GitHub, where the system will always build the latest commit immediately. If a new job is received while a build is in progress, the current job is canceled and the latest job is started. An opt-out is available via `vercel.json`.
