I took a look and it doesn't look obviously bad to me. The per-project persisted checkbox also works, and when enabled, merges through the button could be performed as one would expect even though I didn't test if it really has the intended effect. The implementation here is for GitLab as well which I didn't test at all. Probably this could be readied with relatively little additional effort, but I think it's up to @krlvi and @PavelLaptev to decide if and how. |

I think it's up to the people using the tool (GitButler) to determine if it is appropriate for their workflow/project to bypass merge protections. In general, since the bypass is considered to be something that is used occasionally, IMO it's fine if this is done from the forge website. If we want to implement this in GitButler this is also fine, but I think there are a few things we need to do this nicely:
I think if we can satisfy these two conditions, we can ship this functionality. If this is super easy to get from the APIs, let's support it, if it is difficult or not possible, I'd say the priority is lower (since the bypass can happen from the web) |

Thanks a lot for chiming in! I think a great takeaway from this is that we prefer quality over hooking up some checkbox real quick. And this PR is only the latter, with the former most definitely taking more time and is nothing I'd trust AI with. So let's close this PR, and keep this in mind for future AI jobs. Or in other words, I think I should better analyse the issue before handing it off, to assure it's actually doable in the required quality. |
Fixes #10463 by adding a "Bypass branch protection rules" checkbox to the merge button dropdown, equivalent to GitHub's "Merge without waiting for requirements to be met" functionality.
Overview
This PR implements the ability to bypass branch protection rules when merging pull requests or merge requests directly from GitButler's UI. The feature is accessible through a checkbox in the merge button's dropdown menu and provides the same functionality that GitHub and GitLab offer in their web interfaces.

Testing & Quality
This feature significantly improves the developer experience by eliminating the need to switch to GitHub/GitLab's web interface just to bypass branch protection rules, keeping the entire workflow within GitButler's native application.
