**Summary**

Because of the number of CI instances we run the codecov report that is posted to GitHub in a comment is quite long.

Also because of the length there is a lot of scrolling down to find comments…

Maybe this could be a yaml option to only include the coverage map and diff and exclude ci instances and impacted files.

**Description**

Possibly shorten the number of CI instances which it reports in the summary, if possible maybe that could be accessible somewhere on the [codecov.io](http://codecov.io) report page.

**Examples**

**Versions**

GitHub Actions CI, with 20-30 instances reporting, Edge Chromium.

Just as a quick update, we are working on this feature for [Carryforward Flags](https://docs.codecov.io/docs/carryforward-flags). As for now, you can always hide the flags section of the comment by adding this to your `codecov.yml`

```auto
comment:
  layout: "reach, diff, files"
```

@nmoinvaz, we have made some changes to the PR comments so that if you are using `Carryforward Flags`, you should not be receiving flag information for reports that are carried over. We’ll be formally writing up documentation and a post about this soon.
