Today we announce two new features to help you implement Codeship in your workflow. We will show how to use Hipchat for notifications and skipping Continuous Integration on specific builds.
Hipchat notifications
UPDATE: You can do all this now by simpling navigating to the notifications settings in your project You can set up Hipchat Notifications by simply calling
codeship notifications hipchat
in your appliction folder. The command simply sets the following config parameters (which you can also set with codeship config add)
hipchat_key=xb9d35fhcle53n7586c09e9c1pedes hipchat_room=CI
When setting these config parameters a Test message will be posted to Hipchat to make sure everything worked. [caption id="attachment_65" align="alignnone" width="548"]

Skipping Continuous Integration
To skip a push simply add --skip-ci to the commit message of the last commit before you push.
