Description

The gitea API allows assignee/assignees to be added when creating a Pull Request using the API.
It would be really useful if the API could also allow reviewer/reviewers to be added in the same way.

This is currently not possible through the UI either at pull request creation time.
The reviewers can only be added after the PR has been created:

Is there any progress on this issue

[delvh]

Technically yes, have a look at CODEOWNERS which ships with 1.21.

Thank you @delvh,
Already tested your suggestion if configure with regex reviewers successfully assigned. Problem when assign reviwers to specific folder.

Below example I have tried:

     /docs/  @org-1/Team2
     /frontend/src/   @org-1/Team1
    /folder/sub-folder/  @user1

 
 All three folders(docs, frontend, folder) are located at the root of repository.

CODEOWNERS seems related, but not exactly what was requested in this issue.

But there is a PR that resolves the requested feature: #26596

This has been addressed by #32403.
