Hi,
I am trying to have a build that builds on specific branches or on specific file changes. when I use this configuration it does not work, is it possible to configure a build like this or do I need to have duplicate yml files to filter on different things?

branches:
  only:
    - develop
    - master
    - /support.*/
only_commits:
  files:
    - src/Server.Setup/**/*

   No need for duplicate yml files. What you have should work to limit which branches and what file changes are allowed to trigger a build.
   If you think there is a problem, please link to the build and provide your config file.

   I want to have an OR condition between them so it always build the specified branches, OR other branches that have the specified file changes.

   I see. You could try to make use of for node as outlined in this blog post.
   Something like this,

   
   #your config
   
   for:
     -
       branches: 
         except: 
           - develop 
           - master 
           - /support.*/ 
    
       only_commits: 
         files: 
           - src/Server.Setup/**/*
