General conditions for rules

If there is a condition that is required for all rule branches, these now need to be added to all branches individually.

I think it’d be really convenient if we could have general conditions that apply to all branches.

In a way, this already works for section changes, as you can make the trigger more specific:

An example of how to apply this would be:

  • When a task is overdue
  • General condition: Check if the task is in one of these sections
  • Branch conditions:
    – Task is assigned :arrow_right: Action: message addressing assignee
    – Task has no assignee: :arrow_right: Action: Message tagging someone else

For larger rules this could also save a lot of processing power, as none of the branches need checking if the general condition isn’t met.
