### Description Recently we’ve been seeing Codecov report incorrect coverage deltas for pull requests. Upon inspection, I noticed that all our PRs are using the same random ~1 month old commit as the pull request base, and not one of the more recent commits with code coverage information. I inspected the Codecov docmentation for signs of any recent changes and noticed this comment on [Status Checks](https://docs.codecov.io/docs/commit-status#base:) > base [Deprecated as of July 2020 – Codecov’s product roadmap includes a novel way to manually pick base of pull requests] I wonder if this could have anything to do with the issue we’re seeing. ### Repository private ### CI/CD Buildkite ### Uploader [bash uploader](https://docs.codecov.io/docs/about-the-codecov-bash-uploader) ### Commit SHAs Commit always used as the PR base: 9ccb0f8a3562fc5fd3cb7a3af05d3bbc131b5aed One of the many commits on PRs affected by this: fd809f3c116ca56478a0189922585f9f2d3e56c2 ### Codecov YAML ``` coverage: status: project: default: target: auto threshold: 0.5% base: auto flags: - model - ui patch: default: target: 100 threshold: 10% base: auto if_not_found: success informational: true flags: - model - ui comment: false flags: model: carryforward: true ui: carryforward: true ``` ### Codecov Output We upload a couple of reports for every run.

Hi @matej, would you be able to screenshot the commit log for that pull request? I’d like to compare it to the commits here: [https://codecov.io/gh/:owner:/:repo:/pull/:pull\_number:/commits](https://codecov.io/gh/:owner:/:repo:/pull/:pull_number:/commits) ---

Hi @tom. Thanks for looking into this! Yes, I can. There’s nothing sensitive in this one. Will this do? ![Screen Shot 2020-07-22 at 17.39.40](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/codecov/original/1X/227e18d0dc3d9d527b1c459e5c741c73ae219097.png) ---

Hi @matej, I’m not seeing any logs for `2db4b47`, which might mean that coverage reports weren’t uploaded for that commit. Would you be able to double-check to see if Buildkite attempted to run the bash script? ---

That job was automatically canceled, likely because the next commit came quickly after it. So there was no coverage data uploaded for that specific commit. ---
