Specify a commit for manual deploys and deploy hooks.

When I manually deploy a service, I should be able to see a list of the last N commits and pick the commit I want to deploy. This also solves manual rollbacks listed at https://feedback.render.com/features/p/enable-rolling-back-to-a-previous-deploy

You can now specify a commit to deploy in the dashboard as well as in your Deploy Hook URL:

Anurag Goel: is there support for this feature via render.yaml? Ideally I’d be able to specify either a branch or a commit of a repo

Jonah George: Hey Jonah! Not yet, but we're strongly considering it! I've created a feature request here:
Please feel free to upvote that so we can track interest.

Would also love to be able to specify a branch (and have the latest commit from that branch deployed).

Trying to get a first deploy going and need to use a commit prior to our latest. Would be great if Render would let us.

I am so often bitten by the lack of this functionality... Hopefully it would be implemented ASAP.

Štefan Ľupták: when do you end up needing this? We'll certainly prioritize it.

Anurag Goel: when I need to do rollback if something went wrong, but I don't want to do git revert. For example I do a deploy of the backend and then we realize, that the frontend is not able to communicate with the new API. Nothing special.
Anurag Goel
Štefan Ľupták: Got it. This functionality will be available in rollbacks (which is coming in the next few weeks); you will be able to click through to a past (successful) deploy and roll back to it.

Anurag Goel: cool. Thanks a lot. I am really looking forward to it. :-)

This seems sufficient.

Another use case for this is the ability to promote a specific commit to production after testing it in a staging environment.
